A little more about me

Once upon a time, I began my career in graphic design, catering to the B2B sector and internal communications design teams. I soon set my sights on more challenging endeavors. I delved into motion graphics, focusing primarily on targeted social ads, and had the privilege of working as a Motion Designer for a prestigious agency where I managed major clients. After conquering the agency life, I circled back to my graphic design origins, serving as the Design Director for a tech startup in Austin. In this role, I spearheaded branding, crafted sales assets, oversaw internal communication designs, customer success designs, marketing content, and even dabbled in web design and development.

With a diverse skill set under my belt, I now enjoy assisting companies—both large and small—in transforming their content and design visions into reality.

Explainer Videos

Explainer videos can be tremendously useful to help people understand your product or technical aspects of what makes your product superior to others.

Full Capabilities

While my specialty is motion design, I have enjoyed being able to get creative for my clients to keep asset creation in-house. I’ve done voice-over, footage capture, green screen acting, and even occasional audio tracks. I can run your full project from design and storyboarding, all the way through production and final project files.

Agency Work

I have experience working in agencies, creating a wide variety of promotional assets. During this time I worked with clients like Chipotle, Pokemon Go, and Pella Windows and Doors, as well as Account & Design Director for accounts like Blizzard, Bethesda, Seriously (Best Fiends and other titles), and Catan World Explorers.

GIFs to Long form

Explainers take many forms and have all sorts of uses. From long form video like above and below, to short GIFs that explain a quick concept like how to use a feature of a software. These are some GIFs I made for the product management software, Jira.

Hi there! I’m the eldest beaver of the bunch and I specialize in motion design and illustration. Fun fact, I once ate 50 chicken nuggets… so that’s something.
