Hey there! ✦‧͙
I am a 2D artist with 4+ years of experience with a passion for crafting engaging visuals for games and interactive experiences. I’ve worked across indie projects and small to mid-sized studios like Pocket Worlds, where I developed hundreds of assets, ranging from fashion items, UI and environments within small, collaborative teams.My experience covers every stage of the pipeline, from brainstorming and mood boarding to QA testing and implementation.I find inspiration in animated media, fantasy worlds and boardgames to bring storytelling, humor, and emotional resonance into my designs. I enjoy working in a dynamic and feedback centered environment. Outside of game art, I also have experience with a diversity of visual projects, from illustrated books to tabletop experiences.

2D GAME ARTIST | Pocket Worlds
October 2020 – January 2024
During my time at Pocket Worlds, I started as an artist for the game Highrise, producing approximately 16 to 24 game assets per week. The process involved brainstorming sessions, creating mood boards and concept art for in-game assets, mainly items used by avatars, which were then vectored in Adobe Illustrator, make QA testing and finishing with game implementation.
In addition to avatar items, I also contributed artwork for UI elements, event promotions, QA testing for other artists’ items and furniture design. A key part of the work involved direct collaboration with the player community, helping to bring their original creations into the game.
