传记
I'm currently the Art Director at Parallax Studios, a new agency based in Los Angeles. We focus on concept design art, previs, 2D/3D visual development, video game art and more!
Previously, I was the Lead Digital Matte Painting Artist at a startup called Imagendary Studios from 2021-2023, working on an unannounced AAA game and cinematics using Unreal Engine 5. I manage and bridge the gap between environments and lighting through art direction, background art, and finalized looks.
Before that, I was at Blizzard Entertainment for 15 years, working with the cinematics team doing digital matte painting, lighting, rendering, and compositing for all of the game franchises there: Overwatch, World of Warcraft, StarCraft, Diablo, Hearthstone, Heroes of the Storm, and more.
