Hi, I’m Chelsea, a year 3 motion designer passionate about creating visually compelling stories that engage, inspire and entertain, through motion and illustration.

During high school, I quickly found a passion for the creative fields, whether that was art, design or photography. I found myself spending all my spare time painting, drawing or looking for inspiration for what I could create next.
