Tyler is an animator and CG artist with 15+ years of experience across entertainment, branded content, and live experiences. He spent several years in Los Angeles working at studios like DreamWorks and Nickelodeon before returning to the Midwest, where he now works remotely with creative teams around the country.

His work centers on character animation and previs, backed by a strong foundation in VFX and motion graphics. He’s often brought in early to help shape a project’s visual direction and stays with it through final delivery, collaborating closely with producers and creative directors, along the way.

Tyler has contributed to animated campaigns and content for brands including Google, Apple, Meta, Disney, Target, Airbnb, and the Cleveland Guardians.

When he’s not animating from his Columbus studio, you can find him in his garage wood shop, cracking a cold snack and prototyping his next build.
