I'm a game developer and 3D artist who's worked across most of the production pipeline - character modeling, rigging, environment art, real-time VFX, shader development, and UI/UX. Trained at Tiltan's game design program, then spent a few years in studios working on shipped and commercial titles. I tend to gravitate toward the problems that sit on the border between art and tech, and I usually end up owning them.
