About Me

Bio

I am an Illustrator and Digital Artist from the Iowa town of Princeton. I received a B.F.A. in Media Arts and Animation from the Illinois Institute of Art - Chicago in 2008. In Chicago, I began my professional animation career at Calabash Animation, where I contributed to a number of television commercials for Trix and Lucky Charms, as well as for other brands. My time at Calabash saw me grow from the 2D clean-up crew to a lead artist. I have recently relocated to Milwaukee, WI, after a brief stint in Louisiana to work for Moonbot Studios as a technical director. In my free time, I often find myself drawing caricatures, perfecting my portraiture skills, and spending time with my family.

I am a creative problem solver who loves learning new skills, while improving the old. I have contributed to projects for Amazon, Dolby, General Mills, Unilever, McDonalds, Radio Flyer, and Gatorade.
