I am a visual artist based out of Savannah, GA. Emphasising on a cross-disciplinary approach, my work skirts the line between image, film, identity systems, 2D animation and motion media design. My fondness towards human-centric stories of gender, identity and mental health intersect with my constant desire to learn and experiment. I package my creativity with strong work ethics and an insatiable curiosity for the audio-visual medium.
