    I'm a 2D/3D artist with two decades of professional 2D, 2.5D and 3D animation experience in a wide variety of fields including commercials, short movies, educational programs, print, and award-winning science and medical visualizations. I have literally hundreds of successfully completed projects to my name, and I've never missed a deadline! I'm based in San Francisco. I'm a strong generalist in all areas of 3D production, a creative problem solver with experience managing/producing complex and long-form projects from start to finish. I am primarily a Maya artist for 3D (Vray for rendering), and After Effects for motion graphics, post effects and compositing. Excellent Photoshop skills go without saying. I'm a great planner and problem solver, and my focus is getting you the results you want at the lowest cost. I ask questions and help you work through the process -- 3D animation can be very confusing for those who don't do it for a living! I'll help you understand the pros and cons of going this route or that, and work with you to make the right decisions. Please don't hesitate to ask if you need any more information about me, my skills or experience. I am new to Upwork and currently do not have any past projects through the site, however please look at my web site (link can be found in my demo reel) to get a sense of my professional history. Thank you for reading my profile!
