Experience that connects

Creative decisions. Operating experience.

I began in software and engineering leadership before moving into design, animation, VFX and directing. Running creative businesses added responsibility for people, budgets and delivery.

That experience helps me work with creative, production and technical teams, understand their constraints and make decisions that hold up across the organization.
