Multi-disciplinary designer - working across 3D Animation, experience design and video editing. Her cross disciplinary approach is characterized by the transformation of subjective sense perception into digital and material investigations through the experiential qualities of color, detail and tactility.
I received a B.A. with a double major in Philosophy and Fine Arts, as well as a B.F.A in Art and Technology from the University of Oregon before earning my MA in Information Experience Design from The Royal College of Art in London. Through this conceptual framework, I administer a unique practice of combining the dynamic nature of emerging technology with the fundamental principles of craftsmanship.
With works spanning from motion graphics, interactive installations, built spatial interventions, 3D animations, in addition to functional furniture design - my approach aims to bring vibrancy and meaning into the mundane. I have been commissioned and collaborated with a variety of international partners, including RedBull, INTEL and Spotify.

With a strong foundation in modeling, rigging, and animation, along with advanced proficiency in Autodesk Maya and ZBrush, I bring both technical precision and creative problem-solving to every stage of the production pipeline.
My experience includes high-resolution sculpting in ZBrush, efficient topology creation and UV layout in Maya, and building clean, animator-friendly rigs for characters and props. I am comfortable taking assets from concept through final animation, ensuring they meet both artistic and technical requirements. Whether developing stylized characters or realistic environments, I prioritize form, function, and production efficiency.
In addition to modeling and rigging, I have experience producing polished animations with strong timing, weight, and performance. I understand the importance of clean scene organization, naming conventions, and optimization for game engines or rendering pipelines. I thrive in collaborative environments and communicate effectively with designers, animators, and technical teams to ensure cohesive results.
