Like most artists, I started drawing really young (I was 5). After getting obsessed with anime and seeing pre-production art on the behind-the-scenes portions on DVDs, I knew that I wanted to work in the industry. Many art classes, college, and a bunch of freelance jobs later, here I am! I've tried out different types of jobs that I thought I would be interested in, so I've worked in things like storyboarding, concept art, character design, background design, comic art, and book illustration. I enjoy illustration work, but I would really like to achieve my childhood dream of working in an animation studio as a pre-production artist. Currently, I'm working as a background art assistant!
