I am a 2D animator and digital artist helping my fellow storytellers breathe life into their characters and worlds. With my background in film production, composition, and animation, my goal is to create sweeping emotional stories, with an emphasis on the interaction between visual language, sound, and music. I’ve been on the production team of multiple short films as a director, animator, and composer so far in my career, and I am excited to gain more experience in the industry.
