About 

Self-motivated avid learner, always looking for the next best thing! Currently attending Westwood College for a degree in Game Art and Design, about to graduate in a few months this year. I am proficient in every general area from modeling, character design, and environment design, but focused and strongly experienced in character animation. Currently working on a short film with other Westwood students, where I am doing the animation for the main characters. Always open to expanding my mind to new things that this awesome world of ours offers!
