RESUME
  I am a 3D environment artist that has worked in the gaming industry since 2006.
  Since then I have shipped seven titles for the PC, Nintendo DS, Sony PSP, iPhone,
  and PSN platforms.

  I am very passionate about the work I do and make sure to always push my standards
  even higher. I have a solid foundation in traditional art which helps me greatly when I
  build environment art and in my spare time for drawing various illustrations. I can be
  contacted via the information listed below. I am pretty adamant about checking my email,
  so feel free to give me a buzz. Thanks for visiting.
