Lindsey Muszkiewicz

Lindsey is an animator, storyteller, and "professionally disabled." Having grown up an inspiration porn star (aka, poster child), she knows what it is to be limited by poorly thought out tropes and is dedicated to breaking beyond stereotypes. She is passionate about critical media representation and defying genre expectations, forming new narratives around traditionally boxed off plot lines. As a lifelong artist, she aspires to create the kind of diversity touted but too often unrealized within concept art, visual development, and illustration, helping remind us in that in our stories, people like her don't need their differences to be the highlight of our films in order to be included in them. Her goal is to end up working for DreamWorks Animation Studios, responsible for several films that have greatly inspired her to pursue a career in entertainment.
