Reingold

Marketing firm in Alexandria and my biggest client for years

Internal video summarizing Reingold’s history and progress (2022)

I genuinely love Reingold, from its mission of “We’re on a mission. Yours.” to it’s fantastic lineup of clients, and most of all, its people. I started working at Reingold as a full-time motion graphics animator in 2012. I actually applied to the video editor job, but when they saw my reel being composed mainly of animations, they decided to open a role just for me! I became their first in-house motion graphics animator. They had several government contracts that required opening and closing animations, lower thirds identifiers, logo animations, that they were outsourcing to freelancers. I hit the ground running! I taught the editors there how to repurpose the animations I created for simple things like changing a name in a lower third. I taught them how to work with an animation workflow so they could edit alongside my animation and the two could merge seamlessly together. Since I also had editing skills, I got to edit projects as well, such as the Honor Flight tribute video to WWII veterans, an event that Reingold organized before I got there but never got around to finishing the video. It was well-received by internal staff and clients alike. I had secured my place at Reingold! Eventually the video team grew to hiring several more animators and editors, and the company has since grown exponentially.

When I got an opportunity to be the lead animator at a new firm called Fluent Visual in DC, I left Reingold in 2015. After a few years when I went freelance with WonderLion in 2018, Reingold reached out to me for some projects (featured elsewhere on my website). We have since continued a freelance relationship and I even was given a company laptop to work on for over 4 years. In 2026, Reingold no longer needed freelance work from me as their internal team had grown enough to support all of their clients’ needs. I hope to work with them again someday should their work and my availability once again align. I will always have a special place in my heart for Reingold. And it’s fun to think that their animation team all started with me!
