I am a recent graduate set to receive my diploma in August from the University of Connecticut with a BFA in Digital Media and Design, concentration in Motion Design and Animation. I am passionate about illustration, animation, and storytelling and I have strong writing and drawing skills. I have extensive experience with Adobe programs such as Photoshop, Illustrator, After Effects, and Premiere Pro. I have also worked with Adobe InDesign, Adobe Substance Painter, 3DS Max, Cinema 4D, and Figma. I am an illustrator and have done a lot of 2D animation work as well as some 3D modeling. My work has been published in the Long River Review Magazine and the University of Connecticut's Daily Campus Newspaper. I also won the 2021 Kathleen Gibson McPeek award for my essay "Can You Hear My Heart Saying Hi? The Importance of Queer Narratives in Comics."
