Sausage Party: Foodtopia (2024)
I am a 3D character animator who have worked for Bardel Entertainments, on TV projects such as Sausage Party: Foodtopia. I graduated from the Purdue School of Engineering and Technology at IUPUI with a Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Graphics Technology. I also have completed the character animation program with Animation Mentor. My computer graphics education has taught me, but not limited me to character animation, 3D modeling, texturing, pre and post production. Other skill sets I have also include drawing, sketching, storyboard and digital painting. With an eagerness to learn and a passion for art and animation; I want to create, or help create a fantastic visual story.
