About

Studied at Ringling College of Art & Design, graduated 2013. I've worked around games for the last 15 years, starting off with creating maps in Counterstrike, Starcraft and Warcraft 3. For a short time, I created some popular mods for Cities Skylines.

Primarily trained as an environment artist & modeller, but also do hobbyist VFX and game design. Passionate about learning, which seems proper for an industry that tends to evolve its pipeline every 2-4 years :)
