Call me old-fashioned, but for me there is no more powerful a toolset than that of pencil, paper, and human creativity! I am a skilled 2D artist (traditional and digital) with a passion for storytelling with character design and expression work, visual language development with shapes and colors, and narrative and research-driven prop and small-set design. There is no greater joy and sense of fulfillment for me than when discussing creatively with fellow artists and visionaries! I’m eager to join a creative team and bring to life what universally connects us emotionally as humans to one another and to the broader world around us: stories!
