ABOUT

Hello!


I am a character and creature artist who loves to make work that contributes to a larger, and memorable experience.


I am fortunate to have experience working in well established IPs as well as helping newer projects figure out their look and techniques, working on projects for console, PC, mobile and AR, working with small, medium, and large teams alike.


I enjoy the traditional challenges of art, collaboration with others, as well as the technical problem solving that comes with making art for games. I think part of the magic of working in games and entertainment is that we can make any idea from our imagination a reality and share it with others.


In my free time you can find me escaping to nature, spending time with my pets and family, playing games, 3d printing, studying languages, and doing both traditional and digital art.
