Hello!
My name is Michelle Hiraishi and I’m an LA based storyboard artist.
I’ve enjoyed boarding on both comedy and pre-k shows, I also have previous experience in helping out with show bibles and pitching shows to networks. In my spare time you can find me enjoying musicals, playing video games, or waking up at 5am to watch some F1 racing.
Please message NTI@naturaltalentinc.com for any work opportunities. I can also be reached at michellehiraishi@gmail.com.
Thanks for visiting!
