Summary
I've been a 3D artist/animator for over 14 awesome years. I love what I do and the people I get to work with. I primarily do remote freelance, but have also spent a few years working in house for Apple and some other agencies.
I'm always interested in hearing about new projects, so please feel free to reach out!
