Designed and coded animated display advertising across three formats during DISH/Sling employment.

Creative thinking.
Hands-on making.
I connect the idea to the finished piece.
My background spans social videos, animated advertising, newsletters, and websites. I’ve made work for agencies and brands, and I manage e-commerce businesses—so I understand both the creative and the day-to-day realities of selling products.
For video, I work across filming, editing, captions, sound, and AI-assisted production. For digital campaigns, I bring design and code together.
