What I'm looking for

I'm seeking illustration or storyboarding roles that use Moroccan-influenced visual storytelling, offer collaboration on animation or comics projects, and provide mentorship and varied creative briefs for growth.

I am a dedicated illustrator and storyboard artist from Morocco with a strong foundation in visual storytelling, character design, and sequential art.

I graduated from the National Institute of Fine Arts—Tetouan with a Bachelor's in Illustration & Comics (class of 2025) and have developed a unique artistic voice influenced by Moroccan culture, animation, and symbolic narrative. My work focuses on emotional, stylized storytelling across individual and collaborative projects.

I have freelance experience and contributed to projects such as the Chouf Collective Comic Project, and I continue to refine my craft through workshops including FICAM animation and storyboarding sessions. I specialize in concept development, character and environment design, and comic layout.

I'm eager to join creative teams where I can apply my visual storytelling skills to animation, comics, or film projects and grow through collaboration and varied briefs.
