Describe a Typical Work Day:

I start by working on shots assigned to me at the beginning of the day, then attend a daily session where we discuss my shots and where I need to make changes or when my shots get approved. Then I go back and do the changes during the rest of the day, whether I need to improve them in compositing or wait for new renders from other departments.

What accomplishment(s) are you most proud of?

One of my proudest moments was being nominated for a Gemini Award for my work on the TV series, Stargate Atlantis. I feel very proud every time my work gets displayed on the big screen and my name comes after the credits of movies like Baja Dunes; Safe House; Immortals; The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1; The Thing; SGU Stargate Universe (TV series); Stargate: Continuum (video); Stargate: The Ark of Truth (video); Chaotic (TV series); Unexpected; Welcome to Chaotic: Part 2; Welcome to Chaotic: Part 1; and Fallen.
