About

So you want to learn more about me eh?

To put it in shortly, I'm a 3D Artist. I did my undergraduate degree over at Rochester Institute of Technology in 3D digital design.

After that I got an internship back in my home state of NJ working on a military training game in UE4 where I got to work with some AAA gaming studio veterans and eventually became a full time employee there.

I then went on to move to Maryland were I got to work on 3D scans of actors, notably Marvel's Infinity Wars Part 1. Using my digital sculpting skills in Zbrush and texture painting in Mari, I cleaned up the data and got it ready to send to the VFX companies or to get 3D printed

I got the chance to move back to my home state of NJ where I now work at an Army base as a cinematic technical artist where I work on interactive training games, create videos for demostrations/training, use new technologies like mixed reality and more.

My newest venture is going to graduate school here in NYC while I continue to work my full time job. I'm currenly enrolled at NYU Tandon in the Interactive Digtial Media graduate program where I plan to learn cool new ways of bringing my 3D stuff off the 2D screen.

reading my blog, you'll be able to follow me on my journey where I learn things like motion capture, augmented reality, virtual reality, mixed reality, 3D printing, and more!

If you're interested in seeing some samples of 3D art I've made, you can check out my portfolio down below:
