When I attended the VCU Brandcenter (Art Direction, 2014) my classmates voted me - unanimously - "Most Likely to Use Cinema 4D For No Reason". I took that passion and came back in 2016 to teach After Effects and C4D to XD students so they can execute on their imagination, where I just completed my 6th year as an adjunct (Fall, 2022). The passion for teaching has turned into training aspiring motion designers at companies large and small. I specialize in 3D animation, product renders (with Redshift), 2D motion design for social, UI animations, explainers, and micro-interactions. I've been working with Cinema 4D and After Effects for 10+ years and I'm professionally experienced with modeling, lighting, rendering, character animation and motion design. Here's my most recent Reel.
