I’m an Italian junior animator with a passion for all types of animation. I have hands-on experience with Toon Boom Harmony, Maya, Blender, After Effects, Illustrator, and Photoshop, and I enjoy bringing ideas to life through 2D and 3D animation, design, and storytelling. I’ve contributed to a range of projects, including an augmented reality street-art exhibition in Aielli by animating two murals, and I’ve been developing my skills in a team environment under tight deadlines. I’m currently expanding my expertise with an advanced 3D animation course in Maya for a game project Rampage, while continuing to grow as an artist, collaborator, and dependable creator. I communicate in English and Italian and thrive in collaborative, professional settings.
