Summary

I am a Senior Hard Surface Artist with 14 years of experience in the video game industry. I began my career at id Software as a 3D Artist working on a wide variety of assets, gaining experience and comfort working on both hard surface and organic assets. Throughout my career, I have had the pleasure of working on a vast range of props, environments, vehicles, armor, and weapons for both first-person and third-person experiences. I enjoy the challenge of translating a concept into a fully-fledged and functional game asset that tells a story, is pleasing to the eye, and enhances the gameplay experience.
