Resume | LinkedIn 

I am an award-winning animator, story artist, and filmmaker who creates animations that unfold powerful stories inspired by my own life, family, and society, aiming to make a positive impact on our community. 

I created four animated films that address my personal hardships, the struggles of others, and societal issues. I received ten awards and 37 official selections, including three Academy Award and BAFTA Qualifying Film Festivals.

I am also a junior (’25) at University of Pennsylvania studying Fine Arts, Cinema & Media Studies, and Design.
