Summary

I'm a 3D artist that specializes in creating 3D environments for Unreal Engine and Unity. I plan to apply the skills I've learned to potential avenues in the gaming and entertainment industry, and strive to create living and breathing worlds anyone can immerse themselves in! I'm also an Eagle Scout that strives to persevere through different environments and situations presented to me in life. This past winter, I received my bachelor of arts in Media and Information at Michigan State University.
