Character Designer Looking for Work

​

From a young age I've always been drawing. From mermaids and pirates, to fairies and superheroes. I always knew I would get into art seriously. So did my friends and teachers. Being bullied in school meant I would spend my breaks up in the art rooms on the fourth floors and just create until the next class. I was close with my teachers and fellow art students as a result.

​

I got into Game Design at Canterbury College, and moved on to UCA Canterbury for a foundation degree in Visual Communication. Since then I did a year in Illustration and Animation, quickly decided the course wasn't for me, and transferred to UCA Rochester for their Computer Animation Arts Course. I recently graduated in 2020 with a First Class Degree with my graduate project 'Solumna', a character design and worldbuilding project.

​

Now I'm in the limbo between graduation and finding a entry level position into the game and film industry. Freelancing on twitter and working for clients designing characters and modelling characters is fun, and I'm excited for each new project I get to work on until I eventually get an entry level position into the industry I dream of being a part of.
