I am a visual storyteller who loves taking complex ideas, like how Artificial Intelligence works, and turning them into stories that people actually enjoy reading. With a Master’s from SCAD and experience working with brands like Universal Creative, I specialize in 2D concept art, 3D animation, and managing the entire production pipeline. I am a hands-on maker who uses tools like Google AI and VR to create educational, engaging content that bridges the gap between technology and people.
