Throughout my degree, I’ve explored my love for cartoonish and bouncy animation, bringing to life charming characters through subtle acting and inventive character design. My final film ‘What Makes a Mandem?’ stands as a representation of just a few of the things I cherish about animation I consume: personality, finding humour in everything, and characters that you can connect to.

My passion for animation and illustration is something that I wish to continue pursuing as a hobby artist, but my experience here at Norwich University of the Arts has provided me with a sense of leadership, improved my management skills, and majorly boosted my confidence in taking initiatives.
