About Me

Hi, I’m Thalia! I turn ideas into motion through storytelling, sound, and structure.

About Me Extended

A multidisciplinary Designer

I’m a Mexican-American motion designer from Brooklyn, New York, focused on turning ideas into movement that feels real, intentional, and human.


I build motion by balancing structure with bold expression to create work that resonates beyond the surface. I’m also a philomath at heart, always learning and experimenting. Lately, that’s led me to explore hybrid AI workflows, integrating them with my original work to expand how stories are shaped and visualized.


I’m drawn to projects with strong voices, clear perspectives, and something meaningful to say. If that sounds like you, let's connect :)
