About me
I am a Senior Artist who has been in the games industry since January 2001. I create professional level, optimized low and high polygon models using Maya and 3ds Max. I create the highest quality textures using Photoshop and Substance Painter. In creating artwork I call upon more than technical accuracy and use my traditional artistic skills, eye for detail, sense of design and style to create artwork to the best of my ability. I am also an enthusiastic and well motivated artist, and mentor, who thrives on a sense of achievement.
