RESUMÉ

Anchor 1
Professional ​
info​​

I am an animator with over 13 years industry experience, having worked on many shipped game titles, game trailers, Serials, as well as a short film. During my time as a freelance animator, I have had the opportunity to work with many different companies, on an array of projects. I have great enthusiasm about animation, and thrive to help push the quality of animation any way I can. I really enjoy working within a team of like-minded people, whose creativity and camaraderie help drive me to do the best I can for them. It’s fair to say that at first I can be quite reserved, but it doesn’t take me long to settle in, and once that happens I am very chatty and friendly!
