Since my early 20's, I've had the privilege of being mentored by talented artists, animators  and arts educators. I humble myself to the collaborative experience and encourage others to drive their creative passions so that they may paint their stories for everyone to enjoy and experience. 

​

I have spent an amazing career in Arts Education, specifically in animation, where I was able to teach all age learners and work with amazing animation industry talent. Every year I was able to make films with kids, teens and adults while working alongside talented animation students from my Alma Mater Cal Arts.

​

It was time for me to leave the education field so that I may study 3d animation. At the same time I was earning an income by joining a union working in construction where I took part in building high rise structures in the heart of San Francisco!  That was an awesome experience. 

​

I am an Artist, Animator, Skater, Surfer, Gamer, Husband & Father. I love every moment of my creative life!
