I am an Art/Creative Director with decades of experience in 3D design, animation, and rendering. My specialty is in visual development, where I collaborate with a team to design a creative vision, then continually guide, polish and direct that vision to a successful launch.

I have worked on a myriad of amazing projects throughout my career with 23 game credits and counting. I’ve been fortunate enough to serve on all sides of a studio from leading art teams on the front lines to executive level management. I have significant experience in leadership roles, but I'm equally comfortable in a hands-on, individual contributor role.

When I'm not creating artwork or shooting photography - you can find me studying films, mountain biking, hiking, fishing, or hanging out with friends and family.
