I’ve been in the animation industry for more than 23 years as everything from an animator, animation supervisor, and director.  My work has included 80+ television commercials, a few feature films, some direct to video CG movies, theme park ride films, and short films.

My career started in my home town of St. Louis.  It was there that I learned the ropes and built up my first demo reels.  In the early 90’s I was ready to move on to higher profile projects.  That meant leaving home for Los Angeles. I spent many fine years in LA. Had the pleasure for working on some incredible projects. In the late 90′s, I packed my bags for San Francisco to act as the Animation Supervisor on a CG film that turned out to be a huge mess.  That disaster led me to form my own company, Toonstruck.

Toonstruck was originally created to take on outsource work from other animation studios. That business plan has expanded somewhat. However, we still lend a hand to other studios and have helped out on dozens of productions. 

Please feel free to contact me with any questions or to just say “hi”.
