Summary
My entire life I have been creating visual art. Being trained from a young age, earning my BFA in oil painting from the Maryland Institute College of Art before falling in love with the possibilities of computer generated art. I now have 17 years of professional production experience creating a wide variety of 3D content. I've led teams in the creation of environments for feature films, television, interactive experiential design, virtual reality, AAA game cinematics, and medical animation.
