About

Creative and highly motivated recent graduate of Emerson College in Boston with extensive high-level course work and experience in storyboarding, animatics, computer animation, character design, 2D animation, video editing, and screenwriting.

I have had the pleasure of interning in Los Angeles with the lovely animator Miriam McDonnell, creating digital graphics and working as a production assistant at Emerson College’s advertising and promotional department, filming and working the teleprompter for my local public access television station, and the opportunity to intern with the Massachusetts Film Office.

I have recently done freelance work for an advertising agency creating several advertisements (including a major beverage brand), entered and came in as a finalist for an online film festival, and I am currently available to help with any animation projects you may need.

My passion is storyboarding, animating, and scriptwriting. I have experience with and am proficient in the Adobe Creative Cloud, Storyboard Pro, Toon Boom Harmony, Final Draft, Blender, Maya, Davichi Resolve, Shotgrid, Reelscout, and Airtable.
