Summary

Energetic employee, well-versed in strong communication and organization skills. Great problem-solving skills and will apply extensive analytical knowledge to findings. Adept at multi-tasking.

Recently graduated from the University of Suffolk after developing skills and learning new techniques for the past 3 years. Before that, 2 years at college learning the basics of various software. The usage of different software, allowed me to work on a variety of different college and University projects to help develop not only different skill sets but other areas as well like time management, sticking within the parameters for projects, and being able to take criticism for those more knowledgeable than myself, allowing me to further grow from those around me into a more adept and rounded individual.


Finding myself drawn to many different software during my time in education ranging from Photo editing and Video editing software like Photoshop and Premier Pro leading to proficiency within them. However, looking for more of a challenge after learning the basics and some more advanced techniques and wanting to expand my capabilities, looking into some 3D software like Blender gave way to this, after spending a few hundred hours inside of the software I've grown quite proficient with it as well. Throughout my final years of University dabbling with some other software like NukeX and Houdini which allowed for more growth individually and the ability to expand my horizons further with new knowledge and skill sets. However, finding myself still eager to learn more about the different software and techniques out there, after learning the basics and some more intermediate areas during my educational years, more real-world experience seems like the logical next step towards being able to grow more as an artist and further my abilities to the next level.
