I am an award-winning Creative Director and Motion Designer whose work lives at the intersection of fine art, technology, and Storytelling.
​
After earning my Fine Arts degree from UC Berkeley, I stepped into the
fast-paced world of commercial post-production, where I have spent nearly
two decades mastering my craft. Over the years, I have worn many hats — Set
Supervisor, Director, Art Director, 2D & 3D Motion Designer, Compositor, and
Creative Director — each role adding new layers to my creative vision and
technical expertise.
​
Blending fine art, mixed media, and digital design, I approaches every
project with a wide creative spectrum and a relentless drive to innovate. My
portfolio includes collaborations with some of the world’s most iconic brands
— Apple, Adobe, Nike, Honda, BMW, Google, Amazon, and many more.
At the core of my work is a passion for storytelling — crafting emotionally
resonant experiences, building meaningful connections, and continually pushing
creative boundaries to deliver work that leaves a lasting impact.
