Dakota P.

Award Winning Animator | Designer | Creative

As an award winning motion graphics designer, I live to make storytelling easy through animation and visual effects. My goal is to making ideas come to life whether they are on the big screen, small screen, or anywhere in between! During college, I found I have found a passion for pushing the boundaries of technology with data, working in all facets of design, and sharing my knowledge with others. My diligent, resourceful, and enthusiastic attitude helps propel my desire to create effective and unique multi-media products for clients. This same passion for technology and creativity drives my personal life. I love all things computers, including video games, home networking, and smart home automations. When I'm not glued to a screen, I enjoy travel and the outdoors through camping, hiking, and photography. In fact, prior to working in the broadcast industry, I worked with the Air Force, taking military members and their families on adventures throughout the western United States. Naturally competitive, I enjoy watching many sports including college football, soccer, and F1.
