With a diverse and enriching journey in graphic design, I currently serve as a Senior Studio Artist Motion Designer with a strong passion for advertising. My background encompasses mechanical design, retouching, HTML5 banner creation, as well as experience in video and audio editing.

I began my career in the advertising and graphics industry, starting in prepress at print houses before advancing to manage my own prepress department, overseeing a team of three. My transition to the agency side began when I joined Deutsch, contributing to their studio department and laying the foundation for my career in advertising.

Over the years, I have collaborated with some of the largest brands, producing mechanicals for print and undertaking extensive retouching for out-of-home (OOH), experiential, and digital projects tailored to client needs. My role has been integral to the production process at major agencies on the West Coast.

While at MullenLowe, our banner development department faced an increased workload, so our banner developer sought assistance from studio. Eager to broaden my skill set, I volunteered to support our HTML5 motion designer. This collaboration allowed me to learn the intricacies of HTML5 banners, and as the need for development support grew, I took on more responsibilities. After six months, I was honored to step into the role of the primary HTML5 motion designer in our Los Angeles office.

Today, as a Senior Studio Artist, I specialize in HTML5 banners and mechanical retouching while continuously expanding my expertise in After Effects, Blender, and video and audio editing using Adobe software. I strive to be a valuable asset to my organization, committed to advancing my skill set to keep pace with the latest graphic technologies, including AI. My overarching goal is to leverage these capabilities to deliver exceptional, large-scale creative outputs, whether through mechanical design, retouching artistry, or captivating visuals in HTML5 banners and motion design for social media and video.
