As a student at the University of Massachusetts in Amherst, Katie Wynkoop is currently completing a dual degree in Studio Art and English. She is also enrolled in the Commonwealth Honors College and recently took up knitting, which she thinks is fabulous. With a degree concentration in Animation, Katie’s interests spread from illustration to motion graphics to hand-drawn animation – and they don’t stop there.
She draws inspiration from her lifelong adoration of cartoons and childrens’ stories, and the mere mention of a pop-up book is enough to get her excited. When she isn’t working on a new project, Katie can be found at home, rearranging the furniture and making funny faces at her dog.
