bio
Having just graduated from Think Tank in North Vancouver, I'm currently looking for a job as a video game environment artist. Previously I have worked as a web designer, originally in London, England for 1 year then moving with the company to Sydney, Australia where I stayed for 6 years. During that time my interest in 3D modeling and animation grew and I took some night classes to learn more. It was enough to get me hooked but not enough to get me my break, so I decided to quit my job and go back to full time study. Before designing websites for a living I studied at the London College of Fashion, where I gained a 1st class degree in Menswear design. After graduating I worked for just over a year as a pattern cutter for Yves Saint Laurent mens and childrens wear. My varied work and educational background has given me a broad range of skills both artistic and professional. Moving to a different country to open a new office with a small team taught me a lot about project and time management and also gave me a lot of experience dealing directly with clients to identify their business needs and translate them into a functional product. After completing my studies I hope to get my first job in the video game industry. I enjoy character modeling but my current focus is on environments. My favorite thing about video games is the exploration of amazing new worlds, finding new places and things to see. My hard drive is filled with endless screenshots of my travels in various worlds (I'm an MMO tourist!) and I hope to create some of those amazing experiences for others. |
