From Head of VFX Studio to Your Strategic Partner.

I've spent two decades inside the most complex creative machines : the VFX industry for Hollywood movies. I've seen exactly why studios fail to scale and why even the most talented teams get bogged down in technical debt.

My mission is to take that "Big Studio" wisdom and apply it to agile companies, helping you build a studio that is as efficient as it is creative.
