Available to hire
I am an animation graduate seeking an entry-level role in animation. I have hands-on experience creating graphic content and animations through my work with The People’s Orchestra, as well as coursework and personal projects in illustration and 2D/3D animation.
Currently I work as a Warehouse Picker & Packer at Boots Distribution Centre, which has honed my organisational, collaborative, and time-management skills while I continue to pursue opportunities in animation, illustration, graphic design, art, film and television.
