About me

A curious creative,

resilient learner,

and thoughtful storyteller

My career began in sales during the pandemic, where I learned the value of adaptability, communication, and empathy. However, my true passion for creativity led me to transition into animation. I started with part-time explainer videos and quickly moved into a full-time role where I spent nearly three years developing eLearning animations, editing videos, and honing my skills in UI/UX design.

Though originally hired as a graphic designer, I embraced new challenges and expanded my expertise into areas like video editing and user experience design. Each opportunity was a chance to grow, and I’m grateful for the diverse skills I’ve developed along the way.

Storytelling has always been the driving force behind my work—whether it’s through animation, design, or motion graphics. While I studied Digital Animation, I wasn’t able to fully pursue character animation, but my dedication to creating meaningful, impactful stories has only grown. Now, as a fresh immigrant in California, I continue to refine my craft, motivated by a desire to create compelling, thoughtful work that resonates with audiences.
