Boring Bio Text

I am the co-founder and creative director over at Pylon Animations. We create animations that tell a brand's story and message. Storytelling is our passion and we enjoy finding life in every detail.

The journey began at a very young age when I accidentally discovered stop-motion animation with a point-and-shoot camera. From there I pursued 3D animation and have been learning ever since. I went to Watkins College of Art at Belmont University for graphic design, which allowed me to learn additional aspects of visual language.

Working with amazing people and amazing projects is what I enjoy. It is a pleasure to serve individuals and organizations from around the globe.

Want to make me happy? Pitch me a great project!
