Welcome to my site!

I’m an animator, illustrator, painter, and online teacher. I run Animation Tutor.com, but this is my personal website.

If you’d like to hire me for an animation or illustration project, please fill out my work availability form.

I’ve been working with clients remotely with my international team of animators for the past ten years to make lasting, incredible animations to tell stories of ecological resilience, sustainability, and community well-being*.

*-If your project falls outside of these categories, please inquire anyway! I enjoy working on a wide diversity of content.

My animation techniques

You’ll notice that my animated is fairly varied in terms of its style — I really do tailor the aesthetic of the animation to each unique project, and I hope this is evident. I’m increasingly seeking projects that are interested in 2D frame-by-frame animation, versus limited, motion graphic animation, as it allows for a much better performance of the characters. I think it is important for 2D animation to distinguish itself from 3D in a variety of ways.

Ready to take the next step?
