Texture artist on Deus Ex - Invisible War for PC and Xbox. In the final phase of production worked on creating, leveling, coordinating and texture placement using the Havoc editor in most levels of the game. Later worked as a senior artist and assisted in the completion of Thief - Deadly Shadows. Developed a process to double the size of textures for the PC version of Deus Ex and used that process while enlarging and touching up textures, including normals, for the PC release of Thief. We then began preliminary work for production of Deus Ex 3 for PlayStation 2.
