About
With around 8 years of game development experience and 14 years of 3D development experience under the belt, I am well versed with working on 3D Art for mobile games as well as console games. I have worked in 3D art for well over 15 years overall with a special focus on hard surface modelling. I have a passion for science fiction, cars, mechs and certain combinations of the three. My most current experience with leading a team of artist through the entire cycle of production and delivery of assets has helped me understand the the overall processes better and set me up for managing a team of artists through project conception, setting timelines, managing workload, quality assurance and feedback.
