About

Always looking for new ways to push the limits of animation. I focus on 3D movement, timing, and expression to create emotionally engaging work. I’m skilled at solving technical challenges while bringing ideas to life.
My practice centers on storytelling through the quiet beauty of the mundane. I love breathing life into characters and worlds that inspire me, always striving to create work that, in turn, inspires others to create. When I’m not making art, you’ll find me huddled under a blanket, watching cartoons and plotting my next project!
