I live in both worlds — the engine room and the art department. As IT Administrator Lead at MIST VFX — a studio whose work has reached the big screen, including Avatar: The Way of Water — I run the infrastructure, servers, and render-pipeline backbone that a high-throughput visual-effects studio depends on.

But my roots are creative. I started in VFX and editing, and I still bring that eye to the table — from post-production to digital marketing. With 13+ years spanning Windows Server, clustering, SQL Server, disaster recovery, and network administration on the technical side, plus compositing, editing, and brand-building on the creative side, I'm the rare person who speaks fluently to both engineers and artists.
