As a dedicated and enthusiastic artist who excels in fast-paced environments I can adapt quickly to diverging styles and mediums. While my main focus is in concept art, I am also passionate about hand-painted texture mapping and 3D modeling and sculpting. I love creating characters and the worlds in which they live as well as researching historical and current cultures for reference.
I am a self-starter who thrives in an independent setting and also enjoys collaboration with various teams. I love to learn, am constantly working to perfect my craft, and I especially flourish when presented with new mediums. Respect for others and dedication to shared goals are foundational to strong working relationships and I look forward to enjoying a supportive and engaging atmosphere in my future position.
