I have over two decades of hands-on production experience in social media, television and animation production from ideation thru broadcast.  Areas of expertise include social media content creation, motion design, and traditional 2D animated production for scripted, live, experiential, and branded content.   

In 2014, I was retained by the Ministry of Culture of the People’s Republic of China as an animation training and production consultant for their emerging animation industry in Changzhou, Jiangsu Province.  I also served on the judge’s panel of the 10th China International Animation Festival, held in Changzhou and gave a seminar to 2,000 attendees on producing animation for today’s global audiences through new media.

I have also taught part time at the School of Visual Arts in NYC for over 15 years.   I hold a Master in Fine arts from the University of Miami and a B.A. in Journalism from Rutgers University.  

When I’m not working, I enjoy watching anime, hiking the national parks, and riding the waves at the beach with my son Kai.   

Prior to my current role in social media with the Wasserman Media Group and Cycle, I have worked in production for MTV Networks, Walt Disney Television and Saatchi & Saatchi among others.
