Though I mained illustration, the Film/Animation/Video department still allowed me to take a lot animation classes.

JUNIOR SHORTS

Lonely Dude 2024

A lot of Rabbits 2024

HUNGRY HOLLOW (2025) senior degree project

A largely nonnarrative and unserious short about being very still in one place for a long time.

In this, I think I was yearning to be somewhere that wasn't here.

here are of the animations I did on paper- I mostly used a scanner to digitize my work

WIZARD MOVIE (2026 ongoing) first year short
