Artist Statement

I'm a 3D artist/animator who specializes in modeling, sculpting, texture painting, motion capture, lighting, rendering, and post-process. I love exploring new ideas and themes and having the opportunity to learn totally new ways of doing things. I find a lot of inspiration in old hand-drawn anime films.

 

I create digital humans & place them in hyper-realistic-yet-mystical environments. Each piece alludes to the fact that you are seeing a mere snippet of a full story. My characters are real people just living their day-to-day lives in highly detailed environments, whether those environments be a Brooklyn coffee shop, a spaceship leaving the Earth, or an alternate dimension under the sea, each piece tells a story. I know this is going to sound cringey but I truly want to make it all.  Personally, I'm a queer woman who loves sad music, sci-fi anime, and playing with my dog.
