About
I’m a stop-motion artist and designer specializing in puppet making, painting, model fabrication, and miniature costume design. My work blends meticulous craftsmanship with rich color and textural detail to bring characters and stories to life.
I’ve contributed to award-winning projects including LAIKA’s Missing Link, Netflix’s Wendell & Wild, and Nickelodeon’s The Tiny Chef Show. Explore my portfolio to see how I merge fine art, craft, and narrative into work that feels alive, frame by frame.
As a neurodivergent artist living with chronic illness, I approach stop-motion as both an art form and a sensory anchor—a way to ground myself, regulate, and create meaning through touch and repetition. The rhythm of making helps me stay connected to my body and community, even during times when traditional creative work or in-person engagement isn’t accessible.
Every stitch, brushstroke, and surface finish becomes part of the storytelling. Whether I’m hand-beading a miniature costume, aging fabric to match a character’s journey, or mixing pigments for exact on-screen color matches, I approach each detail with intention and care.
In addition to my production work, I continually explore color theory and materials through personal projects—from moodboards and flat lays to textile dyeing inspired by the Deep Autumn palette. These experiments feed directly into my professional practice, helping me create characters and worlds that feel tactile, lived-in, and emotionally resonant.
I believe the smallest details can make a story feel real—the subtle curve of a sculpted face, the way fabric folds, or the way light catches on a layered paint finish. Through stop-motion, I invite others—especially those who’ve felt outside of traditional art spaces—to see the magic in miniature and feel like they belong in the creative process too.
