I'm a visual development and story artist based in LA with a lifelong passion for animation and drawing. I have experience in storyboarding and have illustrated for companies like Blizzard Entertainment. My specialty is storytelling through character and prop design. Animation is my true passion, and I'm excited to continue bringing stories to life with my art.
