2D Animator + Designer

My name is Daraobong /da-ra-bong/.

I’m an experienced animator with 5+ years of practice. My experience spans between storyboarding and post-production, with heavy focus on 2D animation.
Outside of animation, I have other creative interests in music, illustration, typography & photography.

My curiosity for storytelling keeps growing and  I will gladly take on any challenge that requires my creativity and knowledge.

I’m open to work, fulltime or freelance and want to be involved in cool and exciting projects, so please feel free to reach out to ask about my availabilty.
