hey... i'm hei!
I'm an Animator & Designer from Hong Kong with a BFA in Motion Design from Ringling College of Art & Design.
It's fun seeing where the creative process takes me, so I love experimenting with new mediums, styles and textures!
In my spare time, I love ➀ terrorizing everyone with awful dad jokes, ➁ listening to strange music on the web and ➂ cooking comfort food for my friends.
If you want to chat about work or gush about cool lookin' sea creatures, email me at hkuok2@gmail.com!
ooooh... shiny! ✹
