i'm a multitalented creative with a passion for unconventional storytelling through art via illustration, character design, storyboarding, and fine art. i leverage my technicolor creative skillset with my experiential wisdom to channel powerful and thought-provoking stories.

my creative education includes both self-taught and more traditional education avenues featuring courses taught by NYU Tisch School of Arts and Sony Pictures Animation. during both my self-study practice and within the wisdom I gleaned from specialized courses, I honed my skills in the following categories: character concept art, character turnarounds and lineups, character expressions/poses/staging, art composition, color theory, story structure, storyboarding, and scene structure for film and comic books/graphic novels.

the artistic styles I often lean into most as an illustrator are cartoon, comic, painterly, and whimsical 2D illustration and animation styles.
