I want to be at my peak and work in the field I love for as long as possible. I want to produce work that everyone loves and rewatches.

2018, I had already graduated from a bachelor of fine art but was so frustrated that my art couldn't be more useful, or seem by more people. I always wanted my art to be a part of something, and animation seemed like the most fun. I had loved the quality of the CGI animated Films being released and the industry seemed to have fantastic opportunities for continued development and growth. I started teaching myself animation in 2018, and then enrolled in my Bachelor of Animation Degree in 2019.
