Summary
I am an enthusiastic character animator, concept artist, and storyboard artist with over 5 years of dedicated experience. I have developed a strong foundation in the 12 principles of animation, gained proficiency in industry-standard software such as Maya and Toon Boom, and built a comprehensive understanding of the medium’s evolution from traditional hand-drawn techniques to contemporary computer animation. I am committed to continually improving my skills and bringing compelling stories to life, both on my own and as part of a team.
