I never knew I was going to end up in animation, but thanks to a teacher who saw my love for illustration got me to join her class, I get to do what I love for the rest of my life. I have worked on the Hulu Animated series Solar Opposites and am now working full time as a digital designer, getting to create animations for Volvo and Logitech. I adore the freedom of bringing anything our minds can imagine to life and creating depth to our worlds and characters. And I would never change that for anything in the world.
