Summary

M.S. in Game Design - Full Sail University
B.S. in Game Art & Design - The Art Institute of Pittsburgh
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As a Producer, I’ve delivered short timescale projects from external, and internal projects, as well as managed and developed undergrad and graduate level projects. I have also worked in sourcing, interviewing and hiring artists, including those at the undergraduate, graduate and professional levels. I enjoy working in a fast-paced environment to support and manage the scheduling, including day-to-day production of cross disciplinary teams while maintaining and promoting a positive attitude.

I am a passionate, motivated and dedicated creative. I love modeling 3D assets and weapons, specializing in fantasy-style, for population of environments and levels, and also in-game use for character(s) and players. Bringing concept art to life is always an adventure and I am ready for the next challenge. If you are seeking a 3D modeler please feel free to contact me via message or my Contact Page on my website, I would love to collaborate. Thanks!
