About
Hi, I’m Dylan Reader, a passionate and versatile artist with extensive experience across the visual art pipeline. I specialize in concept art, UI design, animation, and marketing content with a strong background in gaming. Throughout my career, I have grown from a concept artist to a lead artist, working closely with art directors and mentoring junior artists.
In addition to my art career, I am also experienced in linguistics and education, previously teaching ESL and designing content for professionals and children in Taiwan. I bring a unique blend of creativity, technical skills, and cross-cultural communication to every project I undertake.
