About Me...
I have been drawing and creating for as long as I can remember... growing up Art was always my favorite subject at school; you'd find me doodling in Math class instead of doing the work and whenever a pen was in my hand a character or sketch would be created (Often resulting in being covered in some sweet hand-drawn tattoos when paper wasn't readily available). I was drawn to subjects at school that ignited my creative and design passion; having studied Visual Arts and Textiles in years 9 and 10 as well as Design and Technology, Visual Arts, and Drama during HSC - quickly learning about time management and my driven personality (or perhaps insanity) juggling three major projects on top of my other subjects.
​
It made sense to me after school to choose a course that implemented my love of drawing and design; 3D animation spiked my interest... Having spent two years studying at JMC Academy in Sydney I have continued to develop my skills and discovered new ones too (very much enjoy 3D Modelling, Texturing, and of course Concept Art.) I have learned a lot about time management, communication, working in teams, as well as how the body functions on very little sleep and limited social interactions. This however didn't bother me much .... - well working with people who don't share my hardworking ethic was a struggle - My number one driving force is an insatiable hunger to produce the very best result I can at whatever cost and be happy with what I produce. During this time I have experimented with different mediums, wrote, designed, and collaborated to produce a four-minute 3D / 2D animation film; as well as have two of my animations entered into the JMC short film awards night The Martinis.
​
Although I haven't found much work as of yet after graduating I have however continued to sketch whenever possible, designed logos for friends, created portraits for friends' presents, have worked on music videos with Daniel Tambasco (Smile, I Will (Take you Forever), Every Turn of the World, Nightingale), and designed decorations for my work party, I am keen to continue creating, designing and producing content; exploring new mediums and areas to apply my flair for creativity and doing justice to peoples ideas and projects. I invite you to take a look through my world and get lost in the surreal stories written by my imagination...
