SUMMARY

I am applying my raw mental horsepower, and eagerness to learn, to my career in animation.
Everything I have accomplished to - date has been through diligent self-study, hard work, and an education in animation and VFX.
A year and a half ago I graduated from Academy of Interactive Entertainment.
I have been working full time in the game industry since, Following my life long dream of becoming a master animator.
Ability to learn new technologies and concepts - There is only so much you can learn at school and only so much the teacher can teach you. I pride myself on the ability and drive to keep learning on my own. With continuous self-study, experimentation, and iteration.
Takes the time to check, double check, and triple check my models, animation, composites, and music mixes before putting into production
Consistently put in extra hours to make sure my artwork is to my standards as well as to my art directors standards
