I'm currently available for freelance!

Iā€™m a Portland-based Arts Educator and Interdisciplinary Artist focused in storytelling through illustration, animation, and soft sculpture. I've worked as a storyboard artist for ShadowMachine, Nick Jr, Disney Jr, as a Motion Graphics Artist for Hook, and freelanced for clients including Netflix, Perrier, and Skechers.

When I'm not making things I like to run Dungeons and Dragons games, fix old sewing machines, collect new hobbies, and obsess over the quality of light through a tree canopy.

My short film Lemons has shown globally at festivals including Animage, Cinanima, Toronto Animated Arts Festival International, Animation Block Party, and the Rhode Island International Film Festival.

You may find a lot of my work under Kate Burck. I got married, my last name changed, and everything is very nice. It takes a while to change things over.
