[ About ]

Behind every story, there's a character who lives, breathes and feels.

I've spent more than 25 years in animation, as an animator, supervisor, creative director and director. I know the craft from every chair, and I know what it takes to bring an idea to life.

Characters don't decorate a story. They drive it.

They're not choreographed objects. They want things, fear things, make choices, and that's what pushes the story forward and pulls the audience in. I direct for characters people believe in.

Camera, light and timing play their part too. Everything on screen is part of the performance.

The imagination of a storyteller. The hands of an animator.
