About Me
PROFILE
I'm a happily married father working in the film industry since the mid-90s.
As a kid I fell in love with comics and movies. I would spend hours copying comic panels from masters like Jack Kirby, John Buscema, Michael Golden and Joe Kubert while also going to movies alone seeing classics like Raiders of the Lost Arc, The Thing, Excalibur, Alien, The Terminator, Repo Man and so many more. I got obsessed with movies, directors and artists. I've always loved drawing and I bring that passion to your commercial or series. I'm fast, accurate and always on time.
SKILLS
I understand pacing, composition, lensing, and storytelling and I'm fast with a pencil, pen and photoshop. I’m fully digital, working on a Surface Pro. I have a broad knowledge of production, editing, and graphic design.
Meetings are done online. I share my screen as the director calls the shots. Shots are described and thumbnails appear before your eyes for approval in real time. This saves time (and your money) reducing revisions because we both know exactly what will be delivered before the real work ever starts.
I provide a service as well as a product. Some directors want to collaborate while others want me to just do what they say. I’m fine with either. Collaborating is more fun but ultimately it’s not for me to decide. My job is to give the production the communication tools it needs to move the job along smoothly.
CLIENTS
I've created storyboards for use by series such as Fox TV's Second Chance, Fox TV's X Men Gifted, USA's Queen Of The South, and commercial production companies and ad agencies like Union Crew, Charlie Uniform Tango, Cheil, SixTwentySix and Fancy Content creating spots for products like Ragu, Frost Bank, Lipton Tea, Chili's, Albertsons, Miller Lite, Dickies, Cooper Tires, Texas Instruments, Dr. Pepper, AT&T, and so many more that they tend to blur in my memory.
​
I look forward to adding your project to the list.
