Amazing Grace

"Amazing Grace" was a comic panel I made for the Rochester Review, the University of Rochester's quarterly magazine. It details the life of Grace Hopper, a pioneering computer science, and how her life's work influenced a generation of female computer programmers. As someone who also studied computer science, I found her life story and legacy inspirational and powerful.

Animated comic panel

As part of the print for the magazine edition, I was also asked to turn my comic panel into an animated short that the magazine could share on their various social media outlets. The video is shown below.

Behind the scenes

Below are snap spots and sketches I made in the process of completing this piece. Included is also a picture of me exuberantly happy when the print version finally came out.
