Experience

• Senior Character Artist at Possibility Space

  April 2022 - Present

  My main area of focus is working with a small art team to build a customizable avatar system for the studio's unannounced new IP. Providing the player a full range of body types, facial features and identities is a high priority, so there's quite a bit of problem solving, style experimentation and collaboration on our team.

  I've created several base bodies for testing, along with outfits and hairstyles. Working with the character art director, I've also helped explore a range of styles through sculpts and paintovers.

  Additionally, I've worked as a contract artist for Valve for Dota 2, Dota Underlords and Counter Strike: Global Offensive for numerous projects over the years as well as character art for various indie studios such as Ivy Road and Strange Scaffold.
