Hello!
Currently working full time as a Games and Media lecturer at Carshalton College. Before, I was working on an exciting indie game with the guys at Ice Beam Games. Stay turned for updates in the coming months.
I have over 5 years in the games industry and over 3 as a college teacher teaching game art and design. Having worked on multiple game titles and projects as a freelancer, I have created many environments and models - realistic assets for arch viz, props for a stylised game and creating high poly sculpts for 3D printing to name a few.
I am highly proficient in the latest techniques and industry software, yet I will constantly strive to learn and adapt so that I can be part of an amazing team and create amazing experiences.
Thanks,
