Animation has always been important to me. Due to my autism, I didn’t speak until age six, but I was drawing ever since I could pick up a pencil and taught myself stop motion.I founded DaniMation when I was fourteen, initially to produce my own animation series, but quickly found a niche by teaching animation to others with autism—becoming asocial entrepreneur, first in the US and now internationally in addition to my original goal of animation production. Professionally, I earned a BFA in animation and an MBA, and premiered 9 animated shorts at San Diego Comic-Con.

Chris make animated short films, Animatics and small comics. He likes to teach Toon Boom Harmony to people so they can animate and make their own stories.

"I'm in love with the entire process of animation. From the first few concept sketches to the fully composited and finished scenes. Due to some health issues, I realized I would likely never be a full-time artist, but that won't stop me from being a part of the field that I love. Currently, I’m a PA at Studio Smokescreen, a bridge studio in LA. My goal in animation is to uplift others as a producer, and knowing the ins-and-outs of the pipeline and process and connecting with artists on a creative level is something I strive to achieve."
