I'm a full-time Motion Design/Illustration student in Seattle, WA. My work, like life, is ever-changing. I would love to hear your thoughts on it.

All hail the cone robot! Done for the #marchofrobots2025 #cone drawing prompt. Still refining a retro comic book style, getting closer but so much more to learn. Should I keep pushing in this direction?

Trying a new style out for the #marchofrobots2025 #big prompt. I like the composition, but I'm still struggling to get smoother line/ink work in Photoshop. Any tips (other then using smoothing, even I know that one :P )

The combined final work for an assignment in @ben_marriott_ 's Motion Foundation course. I cleaned up the individual animations and I think they now look great together!

Last piece for an assignment in @ben_marriott_ 's Motion Foundation course. Coming up next is all of the animations put together in one big dizzying mess (I can only hope ;) ) .

@ben_marriott_ 's Motion Foundation course assignment has been forcing me to keep reworking the same concepts. Slowly I can see the animations getting better and better.

Or am I just crazy at this point from all the iteration :P ?

Okay, so this assignment in @ben_marriott_ 's Motion Foundation course is giving me 90s movie studio title vibes. Is it just me?

This assignment in @ben_marriott_ 's Motion Foundation course keeps rolling on. The constraints put in place are really making me push to keep coming up with something different.

A short practice sketch I did with my non-dominate hand. It's janky, but something about the vibes made me want to share it.

Practice exercise, done with non-dominant hand and used only shape building. Considering that, I like how it came out.
