About Me

I am a 2D animator, looking to leave my mark in media. I have always loved drawing, ever since I was little. While in high school, I realized that I loved animating as well and decided I wanted to make that my career. I was always afraid I would have to settle for a job doing something I hate, that when it seemed like a realistic goal to do what I love AND have it be my work, well how could I pass on that!
​
My two years at Gemini made a huge difference when it came to my drafting and painting skills. When I could no longer afford my tuition there I moved to Austin Community College and will finish there this fall. I had some amazing teachers who helped me better understand the basics of animating. I also did a lot of animation tests at home, mostly with my little pony puppets, which helped me understand quite a bit as well.
​
While I am not as strong with my 3D skills, I hope to work at improving them more at a later date. I hope to one day be a part of working on projects I can love and look back on with pride!
