My name is Malissa Lombardo.

I'm a Canadian 2D Layout Artist and aspiring designer based in Ottawa, Ontario. I graduated from the Algonquin College Animation Program in 2025 where I had the opportunity to work on two student short films, as well as professionally on a small freelance project as a layout artist for a small Youtube short.

​

My passion for animation and desire to learn led me to pursue a fourth year of education with Munster Technological University (graduated May 2026), where I was able to further my knowledge and understanding of what it takes to create layouts and designs that work for animation.

​

Apart from my art, you'll almost always find me with a book and a cup of coffee in hand!​

Nice to meet you!
