"UkeLayla" is an award-winning animated short released in spring 2018 that I helped work on. I had several roles, including 2D animation lead, lighting lead, rendering lead, and matte painting lead. I was also on the modeling, texturing, 3D animation, and marketing teams. The film features a young girl named Layla with childhood apraxia of speech, and she discovers that verbal communication isn't the only way to reach out to someone!
Sink
"Sink" is a 2D animated short I completed in July 2019. I animated, edited, and provided sound effects for the film. "Sink" follows a zoned-out fast food worker who falls out of reality and is jolted right back in. Content warning for blood.

This is a YA webcomic that I have been working on in some way since as early as 2011. Throughout the process of making it, I have established a personal pipeline that allows for quality work in reasonable time.
"Fourteen-year-old Alana Quinn is a newcomer to the town of Woodward, Nebraska, and after years of switching schools and towns like nobody's business, she's determined to make her first permanent residence worth the time. For her, this involves reviving her new high school's mascot, which has been dead for a year - but being Woodward's mascot, Crispy the Tiger, involves keeping a ton of secrets and a high pain tolerance. With the help of Woodward High's longest-running Crispy, Julian, Alana tries to keep a level head, which is something she never had a hard time with...until now."
