I
am an enthusiastic and fast learner with a strong focus on 3D character
animation. My passion is to produce the best animations to the best of my
ability. I have experience with both game and movie production. I’m flexible
and adapt to all ranges of style and have worked with both cartoon and
realistic styles. I am willing to spend extra time to achieve what is desired
and excel at being able to produce
quality work under high pressure and tight schedules.
