I’m currently a producer for the “Cyanide & Happiness Show”, an animated show based on the incredibly popular webcomic of the same name. Our first season was exciting to work on and I’m happy to be able to say that we’re working on SEASON TOO!

StudentAnimations.com
Please note that the projects featured on studentanimations.com do not in any way belong to me. My work is in creating/maintaining the site. I feel honored to feature the work of such fantastic artists.
StudentAnimations.com was a project started in summer 2012 that ran into early 2015 that was both a platform to showcase exceptional animated student short films and a resource for animation students studying their global peers. I managed the site on my own and had the great privilege to interview many of the fantastic people behind the short films featured on the site.
The site has unfortunately been shut down, though I am planning on releasing a post mortem on the archived content in the coming year.
Other Work
Lighting
I enjoy lighting both as an artistic outlet and as a problem solving challenge. Many of the problems of production snowball into the later segments of the pipeline and learning how to deal with them from an artists perspective better equips me to proactively prevent problems when in a management role.
