Bio
Jason Groden
Cecilia is a highly skilled animator who is able to manage a heavy workload within a tight deadline. She is able to problem-solve difficult shots, and effectively prioritize her daily and weekly tasks. When working under tight turnaround times, Cecilia maintains a professional demeanor even if she is asked to shift gears multiple times across several tasks. Cecilia had really saved the day many times on projects where numerous client comments presented technical and time challenges. I strongly recommend her as a terrific asset to any animation team!
