I offer over 17 years of rich experience in the animation industry, with a particular focus in the past 8 years leading hybrid 2D-3D projects. My expertise lies in bridging creative and operational realms, pitching innovative ideas and efficient methodologies that maximize resources while empowering our artists to create their best art. My approach is to break down complex creative challenges into manageable, actionable steps, ensuring timely delivery within budgetary constraints.
As a fervent advocate for collaborative culture, I place immense trust in our production teams, vendors, and local talents, fostering a sense of ownership and investment in every project. I believe that maintaining high morale and enthusiasm is crucial for building a highly effective team capable of producing outstanding shows.
In addition to my strong leadership skills, I am an experienced artist with a diverse range of experience in Film and TV, Advertising, VR, and Game Cinematics.
