Hello!

I'm Ray! I'm a professional artist living in Los Angeles. I have 7 years industry experience doing storyboarding and design for TV animation.
​
In design, I like working with varied and expressive characters, and I love to show a character's personality through their fashion sense (or lack thereof).
In boards, I like working with comedy and energetic acting.
I value direct communication, collaboration across the whole team, and efficient, smart approaches to assets so things are easy and straightforward for partner animation studios to work with.

I am currently looking for freelance or in-house, full time or part time work, in design or storyboarding. If you're interested in hiring me, please send me an email using the mail icon below.

​I am NOT currently doing free portfolio reviews or interviews.

I really don't like social media any more so I don't have a place where I post my art right now. Sowwy!
