About
Hey there! I'm Ray, and welcome to my portfolio website. I'm an artist specializing in New Media. I use software like Photoshop, Illustrator, and After Effects to create graphics, animations, and edit videos. Additionally, I have skills in HTML and CSS, which I use to build engaging web experiences. When I'm not immersed in the digital world, I enjoy cooking, reading, and taking pictures of my cat.
