I was born in North Carolina and I studied animation and graduated from the Cleveland Institute of Art. My time at CIA taught me the fundamentals of both 2D and 3D animation, although I specialize specifically in various parts of the 3D pipeline.

​

I enjoy modeling and sculpting characters but I especially enjoy creating environments. I have worked on and led 2 short films utilizing my skills as a 2D and 3D artist and have some experience with advertising work. I am knowledgeable in several programs such as Unreal Engine 4, Maya, Mudbox, ZBrush, and Substance Painter and I specialize in lighting, texturing, and rendering.
