Women's History Month: Jessica Watkins
A tribute to Jessica Watkins, a member of the 2017 Astronaut Candidate class, this video highlights her contributions as a science team collaborator for NASA's Mars Rover missions. I illustrated and animated her transition from a key member on the ground to a fully trained astronaut, eligible for future space missions.
Juneteenth
As both the Creative Lead and Motion Designer for this Juneteenth project, I had the privilege of guiding a collaboration of talented artists from the @helloblacksmiths community. The team worked together to create a visual that embodies the theme of "Celebration, joy, and bringing the community together."
