Introduction I've been an animator for 20 years of which 15 of them I've worked off and on for Disney starting with 'The Lion King' (Timon), 'Pocahontas' (Wiggins, Percy & Ratcliffe) and as a Supervising Animator on 'Hercules' (Pain), 'The Emperor's New Groove' (Pacha & Tipo), 'Home On The Range' (farm animals) and finally on the character 'Dr. Facilier' (the villain) in 'The Princess and the Frog'. Currently, I am now part of their newly formed "Creative R & D" dept. and I'm also teaching animation at CalArts twice a week.
