Summary

Senior Environment Artist that enjoys collaborating with a group of talented folks. I specialize in modeling and texturing, but always try to take on new challenging tasks to learn all aspects of game production. My goal in learning new processes and software is to not only better myself, but to help others wherever I can on any given project.
