With over 30 years of international experience in the VFX field and aseveral Awards, I offer a special combination of technical know-how, creative thinking, and strategic acumen to every project I work on. Having worked with both established production companies and up-and-coming studios/vendors, I have a track record of success as a Head of Department or VFX Producer.

For smooth execution and on-time delivery, I am skilled at VFX breakdown construction, budget management, and production/post-production planning.

I am an expert at creating collaborative workplaces where creativity flourishes, having built strong ties throughout the industry and earning a reputation for competence in department recruitment and fair negotiation. I have a reputation for being able to quickly adjust to fast-paced creative settings while still being proactive and adaptable to take on new tasks and goals.

My hands-on leadership style, attention to detail, and expertise with a wide range of software tools, such as SyncSketch, CineSync, Shotgrid, among others, make me an invaluable member of any production team. I do use my knowledge and expertise to help make the next project a success.
