About

I am a creative storyboard artist and animator with a love for bringing stories to life. I’m looking to work on projects with humour and heart.

I’ve storyboarded for live action and animated feature films, animated sequences for a BAFTA Scotland New Talent Award-nominated documentary, and worked as a clean up artist on 'Klaus'.
