About

With a BFA in Animation from the Rhode Island School of Design in Providence, RI, I've strived and worked very hard to become an animator and a storyboard artist within the animation industry. I have 9 years of experience in both animation and storyboards from a variety of studios including the Award winning studio, Soup2Nuts to the amazing Popcap studios as Sr. Animator and Art Director on the award winning mobile game, Plants vs Zombies 2: It's About Time. I'm dedicated to learning more about animation. I have successfully completed a certificate course in 3D Animation from the University of Washington to broaden my animation skills into video games and movies. Specialties: Flash Animator, Storyboard Artist, Layout Artist, Designer, Illustrator.
