About me
Everybody has a story, so here's mine.
​
I come from a family of video game nerds. My dad always talked about playing the old Donkey Kong games back in the late 70s, early 80s and our family grew up playing tons of Nintendo.
​
I bought my first console when I was a Junior in High School and instantly fell in love with games like Halo & Assassin's Creed. It wasn't until I was halfway through my associates degree that I realized I wanted to make games. I started school at Full Sail University in the Computer Animation degree and started working for Razor Edge Games post graduation in 2019.
​
Since then my love of video games has crossed platforms from playing Hades on PC to Horizon Zero Dawn and Forbidden West on the PS4 and PS5 to Master Chief Collections and Halo Infinite on Xbox One. I am continuously impressed by the expansion and innovations in video game technology, software, process and the insane individuals involved in making beautiful games.

Over my short amount of time in the industry I have had the opportunity to work on many types of projects. Due to my NDA with Razor Edge Games I'm not able to share more of the VFX work I have done for them. However, I am able to share some of the work that we have open to the public on our youtube page.
