About

I am an Editor, Motion Designer, and 3d Generalist based in New York City working mostly with After Effects, Premiere, Final Cut Pro, Photoshop, Illustrator and Cinema 4D. 

I like problem solving and have both an aptitude and enthusiasm for technical challenges, but I'm equally passionate about design and animation. Ideally, I enjoy work that lets me do a little of both - and I think that's also the environment that is best suited to my skills and experience. In me, you will find a highly motivated and intellectually curious person who enjoys new challenges and the ability to quickly learn and master new technologies. In addition to my technical experience, I enjoy working in a fast-paced environment that challenges me to think on my feet. I like taking initiative and working autonomously, but also have respect for established studio workflow and file management.
