what I do
my background
What really sparked my love for film was watching the extra credits on the Chronicles of Narnia: the Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe DVD at eight years old. I remember seeing how the crew made an eternally snowy forest with paper, and a faun by gluing pieces of hair to an actor's body. Seeing such a large group of people working as a team to create something magical made me think, "I want to do that." I've been pursuing filmmaking ever since.
I studied at Pacific University, earning a BA in Film & Video along with a minor in Studio Art.
film & video
I have done a variety of film work, including videography, directing, writing, animation, art direction, prop work, and editing using Adobe software.
I created puppets for and animated a short stop-motion paper cutout film, The Legend of the Flying Punani, which screened at the 2018 BendFilm festival, and in 2019 I premiered my senior short film, Grade A.
Though I have done commercial and documentary work, I have found a passion for narratives and plan to continue down that path.
art & design
I work primarily in Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator, and have dabbled in 3D modeling through programs such as SketchUp and Blender. These days, I'm doing more traditional work and experimenting with printmaking, sculpting, and sewing.
My work has ranged from concert posters, to commissioned drawings from private clients, to album cover art, and more. I am more than happy to receive inquiries about my freelance commissions, prices, and skills.
