Dean for the School of Animation & Motion @ SCAD.

Educator. Researcher. Tinkerer.

Bonsai, BBQ, and the persistent urge to sketch cinematic things.

If you ever find yourself Charleston SC, seek out the pig. Order the pork belly pastrami sandwich. Trust me.

1. Makes outlandish threat about mad tariffs.
