About
I am a seasoned designer/illustrator/animator with many years of experience working in the game industry. I’ve designed and illustrated characters, environments, UI, and effects. I am used to working in a fast paced environment and hitting deadlines. I’m an easy going and
open minded artist looking for a new and exciting opportunity.
Experience
Nickelodeon Games (September 2007 - 2014)
Illustration, Concept artist, Jack of all Trades
My six plus years at Nick Games has been very rewarding. I’ve worked on numerous projects and have been in charge of many of them. During the making of “Tales of Neopia” I was put in charge of creating the only combat zone in the MMO. I created NPC’s, levels and combat design. Later I was put in charge of re-creating a battledome pvp arena that was terribly out dated. I was able to develop, create, animate, and design this new environment. It was a very successful campaign that brought in thousands of users new and old. Currently I am a senior level artist working in various areas of concept, animation, and illustration.
