  • Animation

    From a young age, I’ve nurtured a deep enthusiasm for hand-drawn, two-dimensional animation. During my time at SCAD and the production of my thesis film, I honed my animation expertise with a dual emphasis on 2D and 3D animation. I have proficiently employed tools like Toon Boom Harmony and Autodesk Maya, in addition to excelling in motion design using Adobe After Effects.
