About Me

I am a 24 year old stop motion animator and filmmaker currently residing in San Francisco, California. I studied at a four year fine arts school, Maine College of Art, located in Portland, Maine, under the major of New Media: Independent Filmmaking and Puppet Animation. While studying at MECA I basically built my own curriculum geared primarily toward experimentation in puppet animation.

At MECA I continued to build on my knowledge of art in general, and I improved upon my skills in drawing, sculpting and digital filmmaking/editing. I utilized that knowledge to help me build unordinary puppets and then experimented in bringing them to "life" through the basic, yet tedious, stop motion principles. I have since taught and currently work as a freelance puppet animator.
