Exploring + Establishing + Executing different styles of world building as part of visual development, rendered final images, and interactive real-time environments.
I am working in game dev as the Principal Art Director for Wizards of the Coast Digital Publishing, creating inspiring visual targets for video game IP from mobile to AAA.
I enjoy taking a multi-disciplinary and open-minded approach to image creation and ideation: by any means necessary.
Chasing my daughter, traveling with my brilliant wife, reading sci-fi books, doodling, sitting pensively on stairs, HBO, and consuming copious amounts of espresso all contribute heavily to my happiness and sanity.
