I am a highly skilled and efficient Adobe Expert with many years color styling and producing computer generated backgrounds in the Animation Industry. With a background as an artist/painter, I have an exceptional understanding of color and composition which translates into a sharp design sense. After years of experience working with Art Directors and Producers, I have a heightened listing skill and can communicate and take direction easily and produce results in a timely and efficient manner.​
