In 2018 Qualcomm partnered with Buck to create series of animated interviews with two of Qualcomm's leading engineers to dig deep into the nitty gritty of 5G and what it will mean for all of us.

I was envolved in this project from start to finish including storyboarding, design and animation on several shots across the different episodes.

In this campaign for Nike NYC, we mixed live-action and animation to tell the story of OMRC (Old Man Run Club) and inspire runners throughout the city.

Old Man Run Club was founded by three friends from NYC who joked about being and feeling old while running. In spite of their name, they are open to all genders, ages, and paces as a platform for getting runners more acquainted with longer distances.
