A Bit About Me

I am an experienced 3d generalist, industry veteran, and a production swiss army knife. I'm always looking for new freelance opportunities. I want to be the first person you think of when you need a highly experienced person for a short term.

 

I started as a character animator 30 years ago. I ran a studio, Treanor Brothers Animation, with my brother Todd for a while, and most recently was an animation director for Hasbro. I'm super-fluent in all aspects of a 3d pipeline, and I know how to pick the right talent for larger jobs. 

 

Besides all things 3d, I like snowboarding, backpacking, dogs, gardening, bikes, diy projects, video games, and hanging out with my family.
