_about me
My time in the development industry thus far has been a productive one. In projects I've been a part of, I've held many different artistic and technical responsibilities. My love for game development and my drive have enabled me to complete these tasks quickly and confidently. I’ve grown steadily as an artist and have made it a point to encourage other artists to push themselves. My excellent technical understanding of software has led me to fill the role of technical artist on occasion. Through research and troubleshooting, I've been able to fill the gaps in production and make tools to help other artists get their work into the game.
