About

Portfolio: https://mewtripled.com Contact: michellelam@alum.calarts.edu Hello, my name is Michelle Lam and I am a Chinese-American director, author, and story artist. I recently wrapped on a CG series (ONI) for Tonko House/Netflix as an assistant episodic director, and am currently in the midst of publishing my first graphic novel MEESH THE BAD DEMON with Penguin Random House Knopf. I have previously worked as a storyboard artist and writer for various animated series at Netflix, Glen Keane Productions, and Titmouse Animation Studios. Work aside, I am someone who loves traveling and creating personal comics out of my life experiences which I share on my instagram @mewTripled.
