Professional info
I specialize in frame-by-frame 2D character animation in Toon Boom Harmony; however, I have plenty of experience in 3D Blender animation, effects animation and rigged animations of which I studied at the University West of England (UWE). In my spare time, I have multiple social media accounts where I create Animations for clients on a commission basis, as well as my own pieces.
I enjoy writing and designing my own stories and characters that take inspiration from popular shows and video games, and I like to help other people in design and animation for characters and stories for their own productions. I enjoy going on long walks, bike rides and hikes through wooded and hilly areas for inspiration for these personal projects. I very much enjoy working with drinks and making coffee for people.
Work experience
Director (Before You Ascend)
October 2025 - May 2026
Before You Ascend is my final year project for UWE. I did everything relating to the production of the films visuals as well as employing volunteers to help with the animation, voice acting, backgrounds and music. I had to manage my time effectively as well as allocate workloads to people so that the film would be finished in time before a set deadline.
Character Animator (Inmates)
February - March 2025
Inmates is a film by Nathan Caffley (@nathcaff_animations) with a fantastic Lino-print inspired art style, of which i was able to mimic with a handful of scenes, animating the main character. I had been sent an online file with concept art and a few animated scenes to work off as reference and the result was something Nathan was very happy with.

Animator (Robomercials)
February 2025
I worked with Silvester (@silvester_jester) to create some scenes of the short film "Robomercial" which is about a robot who has been hired to make a commercial for a product they hate, and it goes completely wrong. Me and Silvester had to stay constantly in contact during this project as we were sharing ideas for the scenes I would work on as as well as I would need to take action on any criticism Silvester had about the scenes.
Animator (The Elevator)
January 2025
The Elevator is a short passion project by Lucy Watson (@L.C.Woods04) where a character gets on an elevator and every floor is some bizarre world, each weirder than the last. I also had a hand in the direction of one scene which I also animated with Lucy`s guidance on art direction and comedic timing.
Director and Animator (Infinity, Affinity and Creativity)
April 2022
This was a film I created as my final submission for the foundation animation course of UWE, All the animation was done by myself in a handful of different mediums to really push myself with animation tools. I also let multiple people to draw the character in their own styles just to ad too the message I wanted the film to get across which is "Everyone can think the same idea in such vastly different ways"
