I’ve been drawing since middle school, and it’s the one hobby I always find myself coming back to. While this background has definitely made me a better designer, my motivation behind drawing is rarely work! I love drawing characters and cute illustrations just for fun :)
Though my Github isn’t full of week-long streaks or anything, the satisfaction i get from solving an algorithm or fixing a bug literally makes me leap with joy. I love seeing designs realized as actual code. Coding -- like drawing -- is a skill I use to bring ideas to life!
*note: i didn’t create the game assets
Though I don’t use visual design as an outlet the same way I do with illustration, it has come in handy more than a few times. From digital edits to print graphics, I have so much fun communicating emotions/ideas through design!
Recently, I’ve been really into motion design, animation, and 3D design! Blender, After Effects, Lottie, Keyshot -- I have so much fun just playing around with software and discovering new ways to engage viewers further!
