About
I’m a 2D motion designer, illustrator + creative lead with experience across all stages of content production. From indie film sets to reality TV, broadcast design, and most recently, executing social campaigns for blockbuster films, I love trying on new challenges. I’m focused on building a career that combines the art of visual expression with my interests in big ideas, community-building, and creating positive impact.
