Available to hire
I’m a Toronto-based Character Concept Artist and Illustrator with 14+ years of professional game-industry experience. I specialize in character design, visual development, and digital painting, and I enjoy building distinctive characters and worlds through strong silhouettes, appealing materials, and production-ready designs.
Throughout my career I’ve contributed to major titles and worked across multiple art styles, including character and card illustration, game illustration, and weapons/props development. I’m also an instructor at PROPIC ACADEMY, where I teach character concept art and share real production workflows with students.
