About me
I’m a Brighton/UK-based Storyboard Artist from Greece. I have more than 3 years of experience working on 2D & 3D TV shows, including projects for the BBC and Netflix. I love adding a sprinkle of humor and excitement to my work, all in the hopes of bringing a little extra joy and laughter to anyone checking it out!
I have a love for comedy and action but I always strive to expand my skills by following workshops and pushing myself out of my comfort zone.
I hope you enjoyed going through my website and please do reach out if you have any enquiries :) !
