I am a CG Supervisor and Senior Lead Lighter based in Chappaqua, New York, with over 15 years of experience creating high-end visual effects for film and television. While my primary expertise lies in CG lighting, rendering, texturing, and shading, I am also proficient in modeling and compositing, allowing me to contribute across multiple stages of the visual effects pipeline.
My background in traditional fine art, with a focus on oil painting, provides a strong foundation in color, light, composition, and visual storytelling. I bring that artistic perspective to every project, combining creative vision with technical expertise to produce compelling, photorealistic imagery.
Throughout my career, I have collaborated with artists and supervisors across a wide range of post-production studios and visual effects pipelines. These experiences have strengthened my ability to communicate effectively within multidisciplinary teams, adapt quickly to new workflows and technologies, and deliver consistently under demanding production schedules.
I am passionate about creating images that are both technically precise and artistically expressive. Whether leading teams or contributing as a senior artist, I enjoy collaborating with talented professionals to bring visual stories to life.
