As a Chinese girl who was born and raise in Vietnam, Nghi always wanted to stand out but also fit in. Working in animation is something that drives her motivation. Nghi can finally tell her stories and show her weirdness to the world.

My experience with animation is that I'm heavily invested in the medium. I went to school for animation and have earned a BFA and MFA concentrating in the art form. As a result of various assignments and classes, I have dabbled in a few techniques and methods with stop motion, 2D and 3D. I have a solid understanding of the animation pipeline process from making student films and I have worked professionally as an animation retaker and clean-up artist at a few studios. Primarily, I work as an Assistant Professor teaching animation and visual storytelling classes.

I started rotoscoping frames from the screen of my television when I was 7. Thirty-three years have passed and I still haven't stopped animating.
