Netflix - City of Ghosts - Emmy Winner
Worked as a storyboard artist on all six episodes of the Netflix Original Series City of Ghosts by Elizabeth Ito, released in 2021. The show has gone on to win a LA Conservancy Preservation Award, a Peabody award, and four Emmys including Outstanding Animated Series.
The show is in a documentary style so it was interview/script driven as well as board driven at times. I was able to help with the design of characters for episodes 2 and 3 and my boards informed the props later modeled in 3D.
I was also asked to make two How to Draw videos for Netflix’s Youtube account.

Chromosphere NREL Comic Pages
I was contacted by Chromosphere to help work on character designs and storylines for different comics with the National Renewable Energy Laboratories (NREL). The concept behind the comics was to focus on a group of kids who are interested in sustainable energy and collect “joules” tangible sprites representing energy that they can see with their special equipment. This series is to help encourage kids to become more interested in using sustainable energy and to consider careers that utilize and explore sustainable energy.

For this short, I was tasked with creating a concept for a guest guide showcasing different areas of Japan. I drew a lot of inspiration from my own travels to Japan several years back. The thumbnails are featured below as well as the final storyboards. It was nominated for the 49th Annie Awards.
