Objective
I am an energetic and committed individual seeking work as an animator.
I am keen to learn from and contribute to a creative, talented team, hence
growing in my experience as an concept artist and a storyteller.


Summary

I am a recent graduate in classical animation at Vancouver Film School. I found passion in drawing since childhood, actively drawing classic Disney characters, Japanese anime, robots and manga almost daily throughout my adolescence. Over the last few years, my drawing skills have brought me a variety of international awards such as first place for the "mankind is our business " poster design award from rotary international ,Fourth Place World champion for designing "Dream Car" for Toyota, Japan and "cartoon of the month award" from channel frederator, etc. To make myself a well-rounded artist with a firm artistic foundation, I attended formal 1-on-1 apprenticeship with renowned artist L.K Shevgur and then onward to animation programs from the Vancouver Film School, to become formally trained in live drawing, classical animation, flash, and 3D animation.

I am currently studying 3d animation in the Vancouver Film School and hope to animate for film , television or games once i graduate on october 09
