What do you like about working at Disney Animation?

The culture and community at Disney Animation is amazing! I love working with such friendly and talented people who are just as passionate as I am about creating stories that spread happiness and magic to the world. There are also so many wonderful internal opportunities, from drawing classes to pipeline training, which offer employees a chance to broaden their knowledge and improve their skills. Not to mention all of the clubs and groups that plan fun events such as trivia, scavenger hunts, escape rooms, and more!

What Disney character do you connect with most?

I connect most with Belle. My nose is always stuck in a book while my head is in the clouds dreaming of adventures in far away places.
