Fun Fact

I am a recipient of the Stay on Long Island Scholarship, a highly prestigious award that funds the two years I am a student at Hofstra University.

Passion

I'm extremely passionate about animation as an art form! I find the fact that drawings can be manipulated, stretched, and played to be smooth moving images incredibly intriguing, and would love to do something similar in the future.
