Most of my animated work begins with curiosity—an imagined movement or visual rhythm that feels worth chasing. I bring that same sense of exploration and attentiveness to professional projects, where motion design can sharpen storytelling or clarify a message. In production workflows, I regularly build custom motion templates and title generators: clean, reusable graphics that streamline post-production for myself and the video editors I collaborate with. Whether the goal is clarity or visual interest, I aim to create motion elements that solve problems elegantly and feel right at home in the final piece.
When creating animations and motion graphics, I typically use After Effects, Motion, Procreate, and Photoshop—but my most ambitious project called for a broader set of tools. I designed a fully custom animated character to introduce each module of an online course about personal growth. I first created the character (or "puppet") using Illustrator and Photoshop, rigged the puppet in Character Animator, and brought it to life through background animation and scene assembly in After Effects and Final Cut Pro. I also directed and recorded a voice actor using Logic Pro in a professional studio. This patchwork of multimedia tools helped me build a cohesive, expressive character that matched the course's positive tone.
