Summary

Adaptive and passionate artist with a strong routine for work. Currently in a Games Development (Art) course at the University of Huddersfield, where dedicated studying allowed high-grade achievements throughout the two years there. Proficient with 3D modelling tools such as Maya, Zbrush, Substance Painter, and Marmoset Toolbag. Being a neurodivergent student, allows for outside of the box thinking when tackling projects to produce high-quality work whether it's collaboratively or independently, which has proved extremely useful when working on the many participated game jams in and outside of the course.
