Born in Fort Hood, Texas, I grew up as the middle of two siblings. Early on, I developed a love for drawing. 

I graduated from the Art Institute of Seattle with a Bachelors Degree in Fine Arts and a focus in 3D Environmental Art and prop modeling. During my education experience, I obtained an internship with Surreal Software.

The most important lesson I have  learned is the importance of pushing the envelope and not being afraid to take risks. With that as a motivation, my technique has continued to evolve to this present day. Currently, I am still employed with Surreal Software gaining an awesome amount of knowledge and experience. I enjoy meeting other professionals, following the latest trends and keeping myself open to new and challenging projects. My passion is art, the creative mind and the development of it.
