ANIMATION | ILLUSTRATION |

I am a London-born and Zurich-based illustrator and 2D-animator.

In my day to day life I love to observe and draw – and even more to bring motion and emotion into an image. I particularly enjoy focusing on texture, colour, precision and sensitivity. What motivates me most is when my work connects with someone on a personal level.

Side note: If ever you can't find me, there’s a good chance I’m out somewhere petting a dog.

  • My passion for drawing began at an early age. I was always fascinated by the emotion a single brushstroke could evoke. Over time, I came to see animation as an extension of that brushstroke, simply transformed into movement.

    In 2023, I graduated from the Lucerne School of Film, Art and Design with a degree in Animation Film. Alongside deepening my skills in 2D animation, my studies expanded my understanding of visual storytelling and character development.

    While my practice is primarily rooted in digital media, I maintain a strong connection to analogue techniques – often incorporating hand-drawn textures and painterly elements into my work.

    Alongside animation and illustration, I love expressing my creativity in other artistic forms, including music, photography, poetry or various printing techniques.

  • My graduation film and heart-project "Summer Rain" is an award-winning, SRF-sponsored short film which has made it to various international festivals in Switzerland, Portugal, Slovenia, Sweden, Czech Republic and even Japan.
