Versatile artist, designer, and educator from the San Francisco Bay Area. I have a decade of experience navigating creative projects through all phases - from conceptual design and detailed illustration to complex animation rigging and integration into platforms such as video, web, VTube, or streaming.

Adept at leveraging technical artistry with pedagogical expertise, I create compelling, dynamic learning experiences: educational videos, courses, templates, documents, web pages, and more.

If you have a creative vision waiting to be brought to life, I'd love to help you realize it.
