About Me...
A versatile, Digital-3D Artist with over 15 years of game development experience across multiple publishers and platforms.
I have previously worked for Nova Logic, Terminal Reality, and Vicarious Visions/ Activision making such hit titles like: Harvester, Return to Krondor, Delta Force I, II, III, BloodRayne, Tony Hawk, and Guitar Hero just to name a few.
I currently live in upstate New York, and in my very rare spare time, I do lots of interesting stuff like: watching silly b-movies, reading newspapers from 4 years prior, painting, collecting strange occult artifacts, writing and drawing comics.
