Casselberry, Florida - United States


I am a problem solver and a troubleshooter. My skill set is always changing to accommodate new challenges in my career and that is exciting because I learn something new everyday. I have an eye for quality and a passion for Motion Graphics Design, Compositing, Color Grading, Visual Effects and all things related to Post Production. My work ethic, attention to detail and passion for Post Production are my greatest assets. I will relocate my family anywhere in the world for the right situation.
