Summary
I am a Character Artist, specializing in character modeling and digital sculpting. My meticulous nature about my work and how I organize it has helped form the backbone of not only my modeling abilities but also my work ethic. My love of modeling has led me into the exploration of the technical side of my profession – I’m a big fan of creating and finding tools to work smarter and discovering new ways to use the tools I have. It’s all about problem solving. When you have fun finding answers to the questions in your work – your work becomes a passion.
