tatiana moniz
Hi, nice to meet you! I know the title says Tatiana, but only my mom calls me that (when she's very angry), so you can call me Tati!
I'm a Brazilian story artist for TV series and feature films located in Atlanta who strives to create impossible worlds, amazing characters, breathtaking stories.
My goal is to create art that people can live, and what better way to do that than through animation?
