What I'm looking for

I'm looking to create expressive, responsive, and efficient 2D character animation for games, with a focus on production-ready rigs, gameplay clarity, and polished in-game feedback.

I've created gameplay-ready 2D character concepts, Spine rigs, animations, and VFX for mobile and PC games.

At Chrono Games, I developed 2D character animations in Spine and Rive for Forest Knight, creating responsive attack, idle, and movement cycles optimized for gameplay feedback and clarity.

At Frag Games, I built production-ready Spine rigs and animation sets for 6+ titles, including Ultimate Battle Arena, Relic Raiders, Feorh Legends, Meloverse, Business Heroes, and Jousting Heroes. My work covered combat, traversal, UI, and idle cycles with attention to readability and performance.

Earlier, I produced motion graphics, map illustrations, explainer visuals, and branded assets for advertising campaigns, alongside graphic design work spanning billboards, social media, packaging, print collateral, and brand materials.
