Hello! I’m in my final year at Flinders University, passionate about applying my skills in 2D illustration and storyboard design. I previously worked as a full-time storyboard artist in Shanghai, China, contributing to episodes of animated series and refining my craft across concept art, storyboard design, and VFX creation. Since moving to Adelaide, I’ve supported school-affiliated projects like Star Weaver and Kimberly Akimbo in roles including concept art designer, storyboard artist, and VFX creator. Now based in Adelaide, I’ve contributed to school-affiliated projects, including Star Weaver and Kimberly Akimbo, in roles such as concept art designer, storyboard artist, and VFX creator. I enjoy crafting immersive environments and storytelling through 2D art, and I’m excited to collaborate on new projects.
