ARTIST.
People often ask me, "When did you learn to draw?" and the answer I always give them is, "Everyone draws when they're a kid, I just never stopped."
I’ve been working professionally in 2D Animation for a few years now and I’ve come to realize that I am so deeply passionate with what I do.
I’ve fallen in love with creating magic for other people.
The visual style I’m known for is equal parts whimsical, dreamy with a hint of nostalgia. I like to describe is as “that feeling you get when it’s raining outside at 2am”. My clients range from recording artists, to content creators to startups looking for branding. I’m also working on my own personal graphic novel series ‘BRIGHTER’ which has a growing and loyal fanbase all across the world.
The success of ‘BRIGHTER’ has also allowed to expand to create hand designed products in our shop. We carry a wide arrangement of merch from prints to pins and of course the ‘BRIGHTER’ books. I’ve been fortunate to showcase these products at many shows across North America and am always looking for more opportunities to table at events.
If you need some visual assistance on your next project, give me a shout and I'd love to chat.

Producer
It starts with with a spark.
I was an artist before I stepped foot into producer roles but, as a routine extrovert with a knack for hyping up my teammates, I found it quite natural to lead and manage creatives. Producing is not just about taking a project from start to finish on time. It’s about having an unspoken mission to inspire, engage and influence a team along the journey to make it something we can all be proud of.
This job is a labor of love that I don't take for granted. Anytime I attach my name to something I do it with the intention of seeing it do well. As someone who has worked with high profile clients as big as Amazon, Xbox games and The Canadian Press, I understand what it takes to take a project from good to iconic. On the flip side, as someone who has been a working artist for +9 years, I know how to invoke our creatives to feel empowered and excited to create the best damn thing they've ever put their names on.
Let's make something cool together
