I'm a recent graduate from what I refer to as "The School of Interning LA". I've put in the time and paid my dues at numerous production companies at positions that span the gamut from being a P.A., working in development, 1st Assistant Directing, After Effects motion graphics, Art Department to editing. My ultimate goal is to become a full time Creative Producer. I'm currently still on my journey
of knowledge. I work with as well as perpetually learn from the dynamic directing duo, Walter Robot (Chris Louie & Bill Barminski). I believe to become a great producer you need to understand every position in the studio. Effective communication is key. This page is dedicated to my Art, Film and Graphic Design portfolio. I enjoy creating posters for sports, movies, and anything out of cardboard. My favorite is combining sports and film. I love using my hands to bring my ideas to life. I don't create to make a living but I live to create and hope it all comes full circle. My ultimate goal for Art & Toil is to collaborate with other Artists, Film Makers, Writers, Producers and Dreamers to create anything our minds can conjure up from Short Films, Web Series, Music Videos, Commercials, to Feature films. I want it to be a hub for creativity and ingenuity with an uplifting atmosphere. SAG-AFTRA Signatory
