About

I work in story and character design across feature and television animation, with a focus on performance-driven characters and clear, emotionally resonant storytelling. My background spans storyboarding and character design for animated features, television series, and commissioned projects for international organizations. I’m particularly interested in projects where character, tone, and audience perception are tightly connected, from narrative development in early pitch phases to high-visibility, brand-led storytelling. I enjoy collaborating closely with directors, producers, and creative teams to help shape characters and story moments that can live comfortably on large platforms and with wide audiences. Clients : Netflix, Warner Bros., DreamWorks, Duncan Studio, 6 Point Harness, Industrial Brothers, Toonz, Nickelodeon and United Nations. I’m occasionally invited to give guest lectures and workshops at universities and studios. WEBSITE: theartofprem.com Please message for Password
