Projects ARD Design / ​Creative director and Chief animator
OCTOBER 2016 Switzerland
Was hired to bring to life KitKat’s new packaging design and new recipe to
their partners around the world. I laid out a storyboard, concept art and
created a short animation that was entertaining throughout and impactful
with all of the information that was needed.
TEDx Lausanne/Monte-Carlo / ​Set Designer
OCTOBER 2016 - NOVEMBER 2016, Switzerland/Monte-Carlo
Both TEDx’s hired me to create a specific look for their respective set
designs. For Lausanne, I created a combination of video mapping, a string
sculpture and lights shaped by various projectors laid out on the set. For
Monte-Carlo, I created a different kind of string sculpture to enhance their
more compact stage.
Kijik Multimedia / ​Art Director
FEBRUARY 2008 - PRESENT, Miami
For Kijik Inc. I have been in charge of one of their projects called The Beach
Chronicles. This has started with creating an animated series that was
turned into a short animated film. This short film was voiced by talents
such as Daryl Hannah, Tommy Flanagan and various musicians with the
help of the David Lynch Foundation. It was also picked up for various film
festivals. Since then the project evolved with a Graphic Novel that I
storyboard, ink and color. Currently we are working on a live-action pilot
where I am in charge of the Visual Effects department.
BSLR Tokyo / ​Producer/Photographer
FEBRUARY 2016, Miami/Tokyo/NYC
BSLR Tokyo wanted to bring their Japanese jewelry to the USA and I was
picked to produce and photograph their first American catalogue. I handled
the communications between Tokyo and Miami, along with location
scouting, model scouting, art direction, staff and eventually photographing
and editing the pictures for their final look.

2. AKJ Designs /​ 3D Modeler
JULY 2016, Miami
When Zaha Hadid started construction on her first Miami condominium,
her association hired AKJ designs to create the look for their model unit.
AKJ in turn hired me to bring their creation to life. I was provided with CAD
plans, sketches and pictures of furniture and digitally build the unit into
photorealistic images that they now use to sell the units while they are still
being built.
Benefit Cosmetics / ​Producer/Director of Photography
FEBRUARY 2015, Miami
Benefit Cosmetics needed someone to organize and shoot their South
Florida segment for their new commercials and hired me to take care of
everything. I scouted for the green screen studio, hired the production
team and directed the actor to create a clean series of clips for their VFX
team to use in their final product.
Adventure Bike Rider Magazine /​ Photojournalist
MARCH 2016, Costa Rica
In October I flew to Costa Rica to spend a 2 months in the jungle looking
for a project. I eventually heard of a group of motorcycle riders that
roamed the jungles between Costa Rica and Panama and took it upon
myself to find them, document them and edit a visual story. I pitched the
idea to the UK based magazine, they accepted and they published the story
in a 4 page spread on their march/april 2016 issue.
