**Please help!** I feel so caught up in design I'm afraid I got blinded regarding the content. (Aspiring Technical Animator)
Given that I am trying to break into a somewhat creative field, I have tried to add a bit of extra colour and format to the resume. I am unsure about the content, however, and afraid it's become slave to the design as opposed to the other way around.
Any feedback is greatly appreciated! Content or design.

I am not a fan on the big circles (bullets?). I would make them way smaller. Also, the lines leading from the circles are weird.
You mention rigging, skinning, and other skills in your About Me, Objective, and Skills. This is WAY too much repetition.
I would only include your Bachelors and Masters education.
I am not a fan of objectives. I would actually take that whole part out. It is basically the same thing as the "About Me". No new knowledge is gained.
Your Experience is weird. It should be in chronological order, newest to last.
You say Skills and Realizations, but then have a subcategory for only Realizations. I see your skills, but you do not have a subheading for it. That is weird.
I have NEVER seen the term Realizations used on a resume before. Typically, that information is listed underneath the relevant employment (Experience) section.
Thank you so much!
The circles have been bothering me, myself, but I haven't really found a good solution.
The repetition stuff I'll have to look into.
In regards to the experience, I forgot to change the year on the newest entry :P Good catch!
The realization thing is a problem. Mostly it was because the space was not available under the actual timeline, perhaps this is not a good enough solution.
I will go back to the drawingboard - Less repetition.
[EDIT]: Maybe gather experience and realization over the middle? Crude version
