Since July 2020, I'm the founder and director at Pickled Frames — an animation studio with a great focus on characters. My career in animation started when I was 20, with an internship in Studio Pigeon. I worked there over the next five years as an animator, rigger, lead, supervisor, show creator, and scriptwriter. I've worked on fantastic commercial and cartoon projects, some of which are streaming on Netflix and TV! I knew that I want to run my own studio, which is decided to start Pickled Frames.
