I'm a transplanted Mississippian (USA), and have been living happily in Berlin, Germany for many years (- spreche fliessend Deutsch, uebrigens). I work as a freelance illustrator and have experience in character-design, clean-up for classical animation, illustration for magazines, layout illustration, etc, etc... But the bulk of my commercial work over the years has been storyboard illustration; most specifically for film production companies. * Some of the storyboards I've illustrated along the way have been for artists and companies such as Garbage, U2, A-HA, Evanescence, The Rasmus, Marius Mueller Westernhagen, Wella, Ritter Sport, Inscene, Monoprix, E-Plus, Mecedes Benz, Volkswagen, Honda Civic, Goodyear, Ricola, Dr. Oetker, InScene, Nivea, Zalando, Uniglo, Siemens, and many more... I also storyboarded the helicopter scene from the German film, "Goodbye Lenin", several scenes for Philipp Stoelzl's debut film, "Baby", and several scenes for the film, "Black Death", starring Sean Bean. You'll find a small selection of some of the multitude of boards I've worked on through the years below. If you're curious to see samples of some of my more recent storyboard work or would like to book me for a project, please feel free to email me at the address above. * Samples of some of my non-storyboard and personal work can be found over at my LaLaVox Illustration website.
