Hi,
My name is Alexa Hanson. I'm currently a Full Time Lead Character Designer at Bento Box Entertainment working on the upcoming Netflix series, Mulligan. I am located in a suburb of Austin, TX. You can see some of my most recent work on Netflix now if you watch the new adult live action/animation comedy series, Saturday Morning All Star Hits. I was a character designer for the animated segments of that show. This was also with Bento Box Entertainment. I have worked on plenty over the years, and as you explore my website/portfolio and resume, you will see just how much I'm talking about.
HERE ARE A COUPLE OF COMPANIES I HAVE HAD THE PLEASURE TO WORK FOR.
