I’m a multidisciplinary artist and illustrator focused on interactive media, game design, and visual storytelling, with a strong emphasis on character and creature design, concept art, and worldbuilding. My work is primarily influenced by stylized action-adventure and platforming games, with an interest in expressive design, readable silhouettes, and gameplay-driven visuals. I hold a B.A. in Art & Design from Nova Southeastern University and will be continuing my education at Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD), expanding my skills in illustration, concept art, and 3D animation and modeling for games and interactive projects.
