Greetings, I am a veteran of the creative industry, possessing advanced proven skills in game asset creation and art direction of both new IP and established brands, from concept to final deliverable. I take pride in providing exciting, compelling visual solutions of the highest quality and I'm at home in fast-paced, highly iterative environments having shipped over 50 award-winning products with 20 plus years experience with companies such as Electronic Arts, Disney, Marvel, Lucasfilm, Nintendo, PopCap Games, Crunchyroll, Hasbro, and many more.I have extensive multi-platform experience, including free to play mobile, Facebook, PC, and console. I've also succeeded in hiring, mentoring, and managing top-level, multi-disciplined art teams. Proficient in the latest creative software including Adobe and Autodesk, I have refined a unique set of highly-polished signature styles plus I’m quite adept at matching established styles. I also have extensive experience with development of major brands, including key art and logo creation, ad art, merchandising art, and most other creative services.For the past 5 years, I've enjoyed my role as an Art Director and Senior Designer at FiGPiN, where I'm involved in every aspect of development & design of their innovative collectible pins, having illustrated & shipped nearly 300 unique designs. I work directly with official licensors & studios, as well as the factories manufacturing these products.
