I am a freelance character designer and 2D animator based in Los Angeles, California. I have attended Otis College of Art and Design and received a BFA in Digital Media: Emphasis in Animation. My focus is on anime and manga styles as well as messages of justice, unity, and liberation.
As a 2D character designer and animator, my passion lies in the art of bringing characters to life through the power of animation. I believe that the most captivating characters are those that not only entertain but also evoke emotions and connect with the audience on a deeper level.
In my character design process, I strive to create visually striking and memorable characters that are imbued with personality, depth, and authenticity. I draw inspiration from a diverse set of human experiences, including my own as a queer Mexican-American. Combining my design skills with my extensive practice of story writing, I create characters with compelling stories to tell, wondrous adventures to partake, and traumas to navigate through. With careful attention to detail, I meticulously design each aspect of a character, from their physical features to their mannerisms and emotional expressions. I aim to give each one of my characters a sense of life and individuality, ensuring that they feel like living, breathing entities that the audience can form connections with.
As a 2D animator, I am driven by an understanding of the principles of animation and a keen eye for movement and timing. I take pride in my ability to breathe life into my characters, seamlessly translating their unique personalities and emotional states into expressive animations. Through my technical skill and creative vision, I strive to create animations that captivate the audience and leave a lasting impression. Whether I am working on a short film, a series, or a feature-length project, my goal is to push the boundaries of what is possible in the realm of 2D animation and to create experiences that are both visually stunning and emotionally resonant.
Collaboration is a core part of my creative process. I thrive in diverse, creative environments, where I can work closely with other artists, directors, and storytellers to bring their visions to life. I am a dedicated team player, always ready to offer my expertise, incorporate feedback, and find innovative solutions to complex challenges. My passion for 2D character design and animation is fueled by a desire to connect with audiences and to tell stories that inspire, entertain, and move. Through my work, I aim to create characters and worlds that capture the imagination and touch the hearts of those who experience them.
Programs I've worked with include Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Animate, Adobe After Effects, Adobe Premiere, Storyboard Pro, Procreate, Procreate Dreams, Clip Studio, Maya, and Unreal Engine.
