Behind the scenes of "Gray Matter"
Epcot 40 Party with Big Boss Man
I am a Sam Houston State University graduate, majoring in Computer Animation with a minor in Mass Communication. During my education I was very fortunate to completed the Disney College Program at Walt Disney World. I’m currently seeking new opportunities and actively applying to positions to kickstart my career. I’m eager to contribute my skills and enthusiasm to a dynamic team.
My love for filmmaking began in my sophomore year of high school when I produced a music video with a friend. Seeing the final product fueled my desire to improve, leading me to become certified in Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects. Today, I am proficient in most Adobe applications and familiar with Maya and ZBrush.
I’ve explored various artistic and cinematic styles, particularly the classic rubber hose animation style. I’m passionate about storytelling across live-action film, animation, and social media, driven to create compelling narratives for a global audience. While I’m currently focused on refining my live-action filmmaking skills, I remain committed to advancing my animation craft as well.
One of my greatest joys is collaborating with others to bring creative visions to life, whether through short films, animations, advertisements, or promotional projects. There’s nothing more rewarding than achieving something great together. As long as I’m creating, I find peace within myself.
