About me

I task for the flexibility in my schedule in between large studio production jobs for stop-motion animation, where I fabricate and animate puppets for Film/TV. I consider myself a professional problem solver and am often called to figure out weird repairs or take on projects others don't want to, from screen door repair to custom made furniture. I have an usually wide and diverse knowledge skill base, including: woodworking, metalworking, machining, sculpting, molding, casting, electronics repair, computer assembly, and IT work for Apple, Window, and Linux machines.
