2D animator based in Toronto, Canada.
Work highlights
Most recently, I have worked as a 2D animator on the television series Doomlands, Gary and His Demons, and Final Space.
One of my biggest passions is drawing from life. Currently, I am a volunteer administrator in the Artists 25 Nonprofit Studio. Previously, I hosted Toons On Tap and the Toronto branch of Dr. Sketchy’s Anti-Art School.

About me
I grew up in the quiet theatre town of Stratford, Ontario. (Yes, that’s the birthplace of Justin Bieber. No, I never met him.) I spent my childhood feeding ducks, collecting bugs, and doodling on the napkins of the local Tim Hortons.
After high school, I attended Max the Mutt College of Animation, Art & Design in Toronto. In the summers between semesters, I worked on my very first animation job as an inbetweener on Hoggie & Snip.
In my spare time, I love sketching animals at the local zoos, farms and museums. My dream vacation would be to take a sketchbook into the national parks of Madagascar.
For fun, I love going to metal concerts, watching horror movies, and enjoying karaoke nights with friends.
