Hi, I’m Thalia! I turn ideas into movement that feels real, intentional, and human.
I’m a Mexican-American motion designer from Brooklyn, New York, balancing structure with bold expression. I’m 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 :)

It's nice to put a face to the name

FIT at the Young Ones 2026 Awards, where I won the Student Client Pitch and a few awards ;P

I ran the university's newspaper, W27, with my friend Abby Koehnen :)
