About

Illustrator| Animator| Costumier
A creative individual with a background in costume, art, illustration and animation. With versatility in both traditional fabrication techniques and digital design skills. I excel in collaborative spaces, communication and problem solving. I have a Bachelors of Fine Arts Costume from National Institute of Dramatic Arts and a Bachelors of Design in Animation from University of Technology Sydney. As of recent years, my career was focused on costume and theatre, I would like to return to illustration, comics and animation. My multi-disciplinary experience allows me to approach design challenges from multiple angles, bridging creativity and craft across every stage of production.
