About Me

I was born and raised in Thunder Bay, ON, Canada. Living in Vancouver is great, but I still miss the Thunder Bay sunshine. I’ve been working in the Special Effects department since I finished film school in 2001. My experience in the industry has not only taught me a great deal about solving complex visual problems, but has also given me the experience to know what's really an option, considering budget. I feel like I’m finally ready to dive into the realm of independent production; bringing with me the tricks, toys and friends that I’ve acquired in the professional field.
