"MAGNET: A LESSON IN THE LAW OF ATTRACTION"
I am currently working on my senior graduation film as part of my bachelor's of arts degree in animation at UMBC. The film centers around a high school boy whose habit of sticking to people gets him tangled up with both a boy and a girl he has a crush on.

"THE HOLE IDEA" - 0:39
SWEATY EYEBALLS ANIMATION FESTIVAL 2023 Official Selection
ASSOCIATION FOR BLACK ARTISTS SPRING ARTIST SYMPOSIUM 2023 Award Winner, Second Place
I created a short film for ART-387: Animation in the Physical World, in which I had to create a short animation using charcoal and only one sheet of paper. Each pose had to be drawn and then erased on that same paper repeatedly. The result is a hilarious take on what happens when a person gets too curious in one's pursuit of the new.
TOPGOLF - ALL-AMERICAN BURGER
I made a looping animation of one of Topgolf's signature menu items, the All-American Burger that could be used for their TV’s in the venues or their social media channels.
SWEATY EYEBALLS DANCE LOOP
In the fall of 2023, I participated in a multi-animator project (MAP) that was shown during the Sweaty Eyeballs Animation Festival at Area 405, a local art gallery and pub. I animated my character, "Flooby Nooby", breakdancing.
"SUBWAY" (work-in-progress) - 1:06
Based on my personal experiences riding the Washington, D.C. Metro, this short film was produced for the Intro to 2D Animation class I took in the Fall of 2021.
