BEYOND THE DRAWING

Between two excellent portfolios, which one do you choose? The one that made you FEEL something.

There's a fundamental difference between illustrating an event and directing an emotional experience.

My mentoring goes beyond improving individual drawings or compositions. I want to help you think like a director, to understand not just how to tell a story, but why you make certain creative choices.

I encourage artists to look beyond the pretty drawings and think about the audience experience: what do they understand, what are they feeling, and are we making them feel it at the right moment?

With over 20 years of experience in feature animation, including mentoring and recruiting artists at Pixar and Netflix, I help students and working professionals strengthen their storytelling, develop their creative voice, and take the next step in their careers.

I'll challenge your choices, encourage your instincts, and help you become a more confident, intentional storyteller.
