I am a 3D Environment Artist specializing in photorealism for video games and film. With a background in traditional charcoal drawing and a degree from the University of Central Florida’s Fine Arts Program, my work emphasizes composition, lighting, and texturing to create immersive digital worlds. My artistic achievements include two J.R. Hopes Scholarships and recognition on the College of Arts and Humanities Dean’s List. Before pursuing digital art, I served as an Electrician’s Mate in the U.S. Navy, where I honed discipline and problem-solving skills that now inform my 3D projects. My thesis film, A Siege of Greed, showcases my expertise in environmental storytelling, capturing themes of conquest and destruction through detailed world-building and atmospheric design.

Description: This film tells the story of survival, sacrifice, and love beyond death, set against the backdrop of a devastated alien world. After crash-landing on an unknown planet, a lone alien survivor, a creature of shifting goo encased in a mechanical suit begins a desperate act of creation. Injured but determined, he salvages what he can from the barren environment around him, working tirelessly to build something essential from the wreckage. Through a unique blend of 3D sequences and 2D animation, the film slowly unravels the alien’s tragic past. His home planet, once vibrant and peaceful, was torn apart by an overwhelming invading force. In the face of certain defeat, the inhabitants were forced to flee. During the chaos of the evacuation, the protagonist found his home in ruins and the broken remains of his son among the destruction. Carrying the last fragments of his child with him, the alien escaped into the stars, only for his ship to fail, stranding him in an unfamiliar world. The narrative intertwines his present-day struggle to survive with haunting memories of loss, blending past and present into a single emotional journey.
At its heart, this film is not about the crash, the enemy, or even the alien’s survival, it is about a father’s refusal to let go. Through scavenged metal, salvaged parts, and the slow erosion of his own life force, the protagonist rebuilds his son, crafting a new body and creating a device capable of transferring his own essence to breathe life into it. Thematically, the film explores grief, hope, and the power of sacrifice. It raises questions about what it means to create life and how far love can push a being, even in the face of total destruction. Rather than leaning into exposition, the film trusts its visual storytelling, using wordless sequences, tactile craft, and emotional imagery to guide the audience through the protagonist’s journey.
As time passes, the alien determination never wavers. The climax arrives not in a battle or escape, but in a quiet, powerful transfer of life, a final act of devotion. In the end, it is not the protagonist who steps into the future but his son, reborn into a world the father paved for him with his final breath. This film offers a heartfelt exploration of parenthood, legacy, and rebirth, set within a richly imagined science fiction universe. With no dialogue and maximum emotion, it invites viewers to witness a simple yet profound truth: sometimes, the greatest acts of love are the ones we never see come to fruition.
