Hello! I’m a story artist and independent animator. Since 2019, I’ve animated and produced thirteen independently animated short films and two video games.

Alongside producing my own animated shorts, I have been working as a producer for two-time Academy Award nominated animator Bill Plympton since 2023. I’ve helped Plymptoons Studio produce two animated shorts, three animated music videos, and one animated feature film.

In reference to the studio’s most recent animated short, “Whale 52”, Sir Ian McKellen described it as, “A thrillingly original creation… Its final revelation took my breath away”.
