Hello! I’m an award winning filmmaker, animator and illustrator based in Brooklyn, New York.

With 15+ years of freelance experience, I’ve worked as a 2D animator and director for clients such as Pokémon, the NBA, A$AP Rocky, Eminem & Snoop Dogg, Sony Pictures, Disney, Netflix and the X-Games. In addition, my short films have played at a variety of prestigious festivals, illustrations have been both published and featured in prominent gallery exhibitions and I participate in several film festival juries.

Recently my film Buzzkill screened at over 60 festivals, winning 12 awards including Best Animated Short at Screamfest, Flicker's RIIFF Vortex, GenreBlast and Woodstock - the latter resulting in an Academy Award qualification. It’s now streaming on Screambox, Alter and as a Vimeo Staff Pick. My new award winning film Poppa is available now on Scrimshaw Animation, after playing festivals worldwide.

These days I’m available for remote work from my home studio, which includes a large Cintiq, Adobe’s Creative Suite, a grumpy cat and all the necessary file sharing and communication tools.

I’ve been dying to announce that Buzzkill will be playing before every screening of Obsession at Alamo Drafthouse Cinemas nationwide beginning today, Friday May 15th, for the entire run of the film!

Huge thank you to Animation Nights New York (ANNY) for organizing this incredible opportunity and helping bring my film to audiences across America.

If you catch Buzzkill on the big screen, send me a pic or let me know! I’d love to see where it pops up. Go support indie animation (and the excellent Obsession) at your local Alamo!
