About CJ
Had the esteemed honor of receiving this award for my work on Gabby's Dollhouse!
Welcome to my portfolio!
As an accomplished Supervisor and Animator, I’ve had the privilege of working on amazing animation projects alongside some of the most talented artists in the industry.
What drives me is the belief that there's always something new to learn, a better way to solve a problem, a technique yet to be explored, or a perspective that reframes everything.
My curiosity pushes me to stay at the forefront of emerging digital tools and to explore the boundaries of what animation can look and feel like, both aesthetically and narratively.
At the heart of it all, I'm a collaborator. I thrive in high-stakes creative environments where ideas are challenged, refined, and built upon together. Whether I'm supervising a team or diving into the work myself, I bring the same energy: thoughtful, enthusiastic, and always growing.
Feel free to explore my work and contact me with any questions or animation requests.
I thank you. ~ CJ
