Experience
I began my professional career as a background painter on Prince of Egypt, then worked in layout, and later visual development. i provided visual development art and design in pre production and set, lighting, and color design in production. Films include; Prince of Egypt, Road to Eldorado, Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron, Sinbad, SharkTale, Flushed Away, and the Bee Movie. Later I would add art direction and production design to my skills and experience at Disney Feature Animation, ImageMovers Digital, and Pixar Animation.
