For as long as I can remember I've loved gaming and art. So when it came to making a career choice, it was an obvious decision. In October 2015 I was accepted onto an apprenticeship with PlaygroundSquad UK. This increased my knowledge with programs such as Maya, Photoshop and Subtance Painter, to name a few.

I am a team player who is not afraid to try something new and expand my current skills.

Outside of game development I have a strong love for gaming, sport and music.
