I am a graduate of Iowa State University with a Bachelor’s of Fine Arts degree in Graphic Design/Digital Media. I have always had a great interest in drawing, animation, modeling/sculpting and motion graphics. I am accomplished in the Adobe suite programs including FLASH, Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign. I am also proficient in programs such as Cinema 4D, After Effects, and Maya. Throughout the course of my education, I obtained many skills pertaining to animation, stop motion film, motion graphics and illustration. I studied human figure anatomy and physics, perspective drawing, working in grid systems and color management. My background also includes involvement with game development, web design, and working with clients for logo design, magazine layout, and book design. My greatest strengths include working well with team members and clients, taking initiative, and use of creativity. I am working on becoming a visual artist and to learn as much as I can in the field of Animation, visual graphics, and film/audio editing. I am dedicated to my work and continue to further my skills and interest in the area every day.
