Who Am I

I hold an associate's degree in Interactive Media Design and a bachelor's degree in Media Arts and Animation, both earned in Houston, TX, over the span of six years. Early in my career, I created marketing materials for prominent US movie and TV franchises, including Lord of the Rings and Everybody Loves Raymond. Upon moving to Switzerland, I transitioned into TV commercials and visual effects for Swiss movie productions, where I honed my skills in 3D and compositing.

I've expanded my expertise into many aspects of film and video production, including digital restoration of classic movies, audio recording, and audio post-production. My work has pushed me further into directing, where I can showcase my ability to elicit natural performances from actors. Throughout my career, I've developed a well-rounded understanding of the movie and video production process, allowing me to bring a unique blend of creative and technical skills to my work.
