Black Squirrel Productions
Art Director and XR Concept Designer
At Black Squirrel, I use 3D and VR tools to create immersive concepts for world building, narrative storytelling, education, and historical experiences.
Our distinctive, sketch-driven style is ideal for rapid iteration and can also be carried through to final production if desired.
Immersive Worlds
“Día de los Muertos"
Inspired by the colorful and wonderful celebration, I created a Day of the Dead inspired “Dark Ride” theme park concept in VR.
Other Immersive Worlds (Reel)
A showcase of additional immersive worlds to which I have contributed to.
Narrative Storytelling
“The Stranger”
In collaboration with O-T Fagbenle (The Handmaid’s Tale), I integrated his 8K 360° stereoscopic live-action footage with an illustrated film noir 3D style.
This project explored blended two mediums to tell his funny story about a “stranger” he met on his journey to Charleston.
“Window into History”
I worked with Secret Portal to create two animated AR experiences for the “Hanukkah Illuminated 2020” app, bringing Hanukkah stories to life—one uses a window as a portal, and the other features an animated menorah that dances on your table.

“Basics of Electricity”
In collaboration with Promising People LLC, I created a 20-minute VR training lesson that uses animated 3D diagrams to simplify electrical concepts for electricians, making complex ideas clear and engaging.
