I am an illustrator and designer studying motion graphics. I'm endlessly fascinated by the ability technology gives me to bring life to design. I can make typography fly around the moon or I can make my drawings walk and talk, eat, fall in love, or sell shoes if I so desired. Incredible stuff. In my work I like to create a cinematic experience. I want to take the viewer out of themselves and transport them to a realm they've never known. I am an optimist and idealist. Good design can have a powerful and transforming effect on a person.
