== Career ==
* Episode Director
* Storyboard Artist
Lee studied at Pasadena Art Center of Design and started his career after a director for Ben 10 was impressed by his storyboarding homework and offered him freelancing work, granting him his first job in the animation industry with Cartoon Network.[1] Working on Voltron allows him to draw in the anime style that he loves and this is something he appreciates about the series.[1] He did not originally believe he would be a professional artist, but had the support of his father for the craft and did not stop pursuing art.[1]
Lee has directed numerous episodes over many seasons; he prefers lighthearted episodes but will crave the opposite kind of work if he feels over-saturated with whatever kind of episodes he is working on at the time.[2] Lee takes inspiration from various mecha series such as Gundam Unicorn, Evangelion, and Gurren Lagann as well as comedy inspiration from series such as The Legend of Korra and Kill la Kill.[2] He is known to research how to choreograph action scenes he must direct.[2] Lee enjoys working on Voltron because he works with so many of his friends that he worked with on The Legend of Korra.[1] He has been credited for the direction of 14 episodes.
