About Me

VFX, Virtual Production, Tech Enthusiast, Multidisciplinary Creative

Best known as co-author of the globally recognized Brazil Rendering System - a high-performance, production quality GI ray trace renderer.

My history is primarily as a technical specialist and entrepreneur. I love working alongside creatives to achieve a vision. I enjoy working to understand a problem-space and serving as a liaison between teams and parties with varying, sometimes conflicting goals -- and with differing languages of expertise. I'm hands on, enjoy working on-set, and thrive under pressure, especially when I'm troubleshooting and improvising creative solutions to on-the-spot problems. I pride myself on my artistic sensibilities and my ability to match looks on projects -- whether matching a non-photoreal property or helping to invisibly integrate VFX elements into photographed imagery.
