a little about me:
Originally from southwest Washington State, I moved up to Seattle to go to school at the DigiPen Institute of Technology and to pursue a career in computer graphics and design. While at DigiPen, I dabbled into many aspects of 3D and 2D design, eventually gravitating towards the creation of three-dimensional environments and digital illustration. I'm currently working as an illustrator at Laika in Portland, Oregon.
