Since 2005 I've been lucky enough to work in the lighting department at Pixar Animation Studios. Pixar has been generous with training and opportunity, with tons of support in lighting-cinematography, leadership and art. I've loved being a student. I also enjoy teaching my own classes at Pixar, helping others as so many have helped me.
