About
20 Years of Building Characters & Story Worlds

I’m an Art Director, Character Designer, and Illustrator based in Los Angeles, collaborating with major studios, publishers, and agencies across film, themed entertainment, marketing, publishing, and consumer products.

With over 20 years in the entertainment industry, I’ve helped bring characters and story worlds to life — from theatrical films and global marketing campaigns to comprehensive style guides and large-scale experiential activations.

My career began at Disney Consumer Products before joining DreamWorks Animation, where I spent over a decade developing character art for some of the studio’s most recognizable franchises. Following the acquisition by NBCUniversal, I moved into senior leadership, overseeing teams of artists and art directing projects across marketing, publishing, live events, location-based entertainment, and global product development.

Today, I work independently as a creative partner and contractor, continuing to collaborate with NBCUniversal while also working with Disney on film marketing campaigns and themed entertainment initiatives. I’ve partnered with Windsong Studios and Ten30 Studios on creative development projects, and recently illustrated a children’s book published by Penguin Random House.

Whether building a visual system for a global franchise or crafting expressive character-driven illustration, I focus on clarity, storytelling, and cohesive brand identity.

I approach every project with a balance of strategic thinking and expressive design. Let’s create something meaningful.
