About me

I’m Raven, an artist from Media Pennsylvania!

My art is inspired by absurd comedy, video games, and life as a forever awkward human being.

Though I have a wide range of artistic passions, my professional interests lie in storyboarding, animation, and illustration. I also have media production and administrative experience and would be open to production assistant positions in the entertainment industry.

My ultimate goal is to join a team of diverse voices and contribute to fun projects that people can see themselves in, or learn a little about the people around them from.

I would love to join a team full-time or work on freelance animation and illustration projects. I adore music-related, comedic, and/or cute projects—but I’m open to just about anything!
