I’ve been working in multimedia and game development since 2009. Currently, I am working as Creative Director at Digital Leisure, a small independent games studio just north of Toronto. I manage a team of great artists but I am also in the trenches with them, working on the art for our games.
Most recently my focus has been on UI, 2D art and design work for our current game, The Four Kings Casino and Slots for Steam & PS4. I have had the opportunity to work on many aspects of the game, including creating the 3D base models and blend shapes for our avatar system, a number of clothing rewards, concept art, marketing images and advertisements, video editing, writing and editing copy for both marketing and in-game text, 2D art and animation for slot machine games, game design, sound design, writing style guides and designing an updated UI system, training new artists, and basically jumping in wherever I can help. My desire to learn, help my team, and grow as a professional artist and designer has naturally lead to a broad skill set.
In the rest of my spare time I enjoy learning and trying new things, which has led to several hobbies including gardening, photography, sewing, cooking and D&D.
