I'm a recently graduated illustrator and designer with a sharp eye for detail and a love for creating high quality, meaningful work. I'm excited to put into practice everything I've learned and always looking for new things to explore, especially in illustration, 3D, and design. I really value clear communication and collaboration, and I believe great ideas come from working together and staying curious.
