TECHNICAL ARTIST

Hello! I am an artist with a background in software engineering. I have worked in the software industry for nearly five years. As an artist, I have practiced in traditional media like oil and acrylic.


I am currently a graduate student at Carnegie Mellon University's Entertainment Technology Center (ETC), where I am attempting to combine my passion for the two disciplines as a technical artist for game and film projects.
