I attended Huntington University Center for Digital Media Arts in Peoria, Arizona, where I graduated summa cum laude with a Bachelor's degree in Animation. My technical skills include many programs in the Adobe Creative suite – After Effects, Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere Pro, InDesign, and Character Animator. Additionally, I have four years of experience working with Toon Boom Harmony and several years with Toon Boom Storyboard Pro. I also have several years of 3D experience working with Autodesk Maya and ZBrush. As part of my studies, I have been a part of five different student production teams which have completed five different animated short films. All of these films were digitally hand-animated in 2D using Toon Boom Harmony, and I worked as an animator in four out of five of these projects.

Though my college studies were primarily focused on developing my artistic skill sets, it was always my dream to one day be an author, and I am currently in the process of writing my first novel. Click here to read more about this project!
