EMPLOYMENT
2009- Art Instructor
I run a summer workshop instructing kids ages 10 and up on the fundamentals of drawing. I had the kids design thier own characters; and with the knowledge of drawing through observation, breaking down the drawing through shapes and lines, and using line of action, thier work is constantly improving each week.

2009- Animation Director, Short Film: Teddy & Me Forever
From concept to work print, I designed the characters, created the storyboards, and overall Art Direction.

2008-2009 Office Manager, Public Storage
These skills matter to anyone looking for a willing intern in need of experience. I open and close the office, sell merchandise, assemble contracts, handle property finances, mail and receive letters, make phone calls, file paperwork, and count inventory. In short, I can run errands, file stuff, make phone calls and set up meetings with important people.

This is the work print of the Short Film I'm working on. It still has a ways to go but it's getting there.

These are the Storyboards that are posted below, timed with original music from me. I'm having somebody with actual musical talent take my composition and perfect it's melody. It will be in the final cut of the film when it's colored and in High-Definition.
