Bio

Growing up, I've always had an interest in animation. The first film I remember watching was Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron. James Baxter's animation absolutely blew me away, and from then on, two things were certain: I loved horses, and I loved films. Especially animated films. 

​

Clay Mates is my first animation endeavor, completed in my bedroom while quarantined because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Animation has a special place in my heart, but I am currently more focused on the cinematography and lighting aspect of film. I hope to one day be a Director of Photography.
