Birthdate:  July 26, 1980

I've have had the urge to draw since I was very little.  I really enjoy challenging myself and pushing my limits as an artist on a wide array of software and design principles.  I've been fascinated in videogames and animation as well as drafting and design.  I've attended the Art Institute and graduated with a BA of Computer Science in Game Art and Design in 2008.

My software experience includes extensive knowledge in Adobe Photoshop, 3Ds Max, Microsoft Expression/Frontpage and a few HTML editors.  I've been doing some studying in Maya, Flash, and Auto CAD for the sake of expanding my digital drawing repertoire.  I've been a traditional artist long before I was able to fully utilize a computer doing caricatures and sketching.

As an artist I'm always striving to improve as time goes by.  Some areas I need to work on namely in texture art, where I need to add as much detail and use as little diffuse maps as possible since the industry still follows the golden rule of low poly models.  I can also draw more cartoony if the job applies it, be it American or Anime.

Videogames are, and has always been my biggest hobby, it's the interactive story that draws me to them.  I enjoy many titles spanning across several genres over the years.  Currently, I own a Wii, Xbox 360, and a PS3. Personally, I like the Xbox 360 due to a more diverse library compared to other consoles, and now that Microsoft and the Xbox 360 are reaching out towards Role Playing Game and Adventure fans as well as classic arcade titles to expand their library it's all the more enjoyable to own that console.
