From an early age, I was drawn to creating my own miniature worlds. No matter how I played—with Legos, Barbies, Lincoln Logs, even in the sandbox—I always loved to construct tiny, immaculately decorated houses and towns.
Much later, as a student, I tried stop-motion animation. To my surprise, the process seemed to come naturally. Building the sets and puppets has always been my favorite part. This discovery led me to explore computer animation as well, with the same attention to detail and emphasis on handmade elements.
After many years in Northwestern Pennsylvania, I now live in the Lincoln Square neighborhood of Chicago. I love Chicago summers, and can often be seen at local beer bars and art fairs. I currently work as a Creative specializing in design and animation at [wire] stone in River North. View my full resume here.
