I'm a concept artist and animator from Lakewood, Washington. I specialize in 2D illustrations and animation, but I have also done some 3D modelling and animation. In my free time, I like to work on my own stories and accompanying art. My favorite subject and genre to explore is the supernatural and mythology. I like to investigate the lore and history behind both and implement facts into the fiction, as I am a life-long learner, and I aim to have knowledge like that to be passed on in my work.
