RESUME

I'm a character animator utilizing 3D and 2D animation. I'm a recent grad from California College of the Arts where I earned a BFA in animation. To get a better idea of my art, check out my reel at the top of the page! I also enjoy working with the entire 3D pipeline from modeling to final lighting/comp. You can some modeling work below
