Education & Experience
Treehouse Republic
From March 2020 - August 2020, I worked as a trainee animator on Hungry Bear Tales, a children's TV show currently airing on RTÉ Junior. In this production, the animation team worked from home and submitted work online. During this job, I had first-hand experience working within an animation pipeline and working with a team. I animated using Autodesk Maya, giving me firsthand experience with animating in the software using 2D puppets. This job was invaluable at teaching me the inner workings of an animation production and working with a team of animators.

I am finishing up Animation and Illustration at the Athlone Institute of Technology in May of 2021. The first of its kind in the country, this course has given me a unique skillset to work with.

While attending AIT, I have become proficient in using a tablet, and have learned how to use several animation programs along the way. I am skilled at animating in TV Paint, Clip Studio Paint and Autodesk Maya, and can use the Adobe suite. Outside of animation, I am technologically skilled and can use any Google or Microsoft program I am given.

Over the years, I have done commissions for various clients. These works have been displayed privately in people's homes. I have also received a commendation in the Texaco Children's Art Competition and won the Credit Union Art Competition more than once in my local area.
11/01/2016About Me
I am a versatile illustrator, storyteller and animator who enjoys character animation, storyboarding, illustrating and scriptwriting. Lately I have been focusing on character design, character animation, layouts and scriptwriting for my project.
My main artistic inspirations come from animated films, video games and playing Dungeons and Dragons. I also enjoy draughts, reading, collecting Pokémon plushies and walking my dog Tess.
I am a hard working team player who is self-motivated and goal-focused. I work well within a group, and am able to clearly communicate with those around me. I have previous industry experience as a trainee animator in Treehouse Republic, where the team had to work within the pipeline from home. I was also one of the student reps of the third year Animation and Illustration class, a role that required clear communication, organisation skills and planning.
