For nearly nine years I've been a freelance virtual clothing designer for multiple digital stores, including my own, in the virtual metaverse called Second Life. I model, texture, and rig all of my own creations. Programs I utilize include Maya, Zbrush, Marvelous Designer, Photoshop, Substance Painter, and Marmoset Toolbag. When I first started I was completely self-taught. It wasn't until a few years ago that I decided to enhance my skills by attending Southern New Hampshire University to earn my Bachelor's Degree in Game Art and Design. I wanted to learn and gain skills in the other aspects of the game development pipeline. I've gained experience in 3d modeling and Animation, along with additional graphic design skills while at SNHU. Prior to my recent achievements and experiences , I dedicated most of my life to art and fashion design. I have an Associate's Degree in Professional Art and a background in fashion design and production.
