About me

Hello - I am 25 years old, living in London and retraining to be an animator. I am looking for work as a runner, administrator or receptionist in an animation/production studio so I can learn more about the industry. In my last position at a high-growth kids media startup, my responsibilities included admin, business operations, project management, customer service and HR. My previous experience includes working at a large corporation doing marketing and branding and for magazines as a photographer and assistant. I believe my varied experience working in a fast-paced and creative environments make me a strong candidate!
