I have over 16 years experience within the computer games development industry, working for some of the biggest companies at a senior level. During this time, I have grown as both an artist and animator as well as a manager.
My senior positions within the art departments have enabled me to develop my skills in not only managing my own time and workload but also that of a team. I have proven myself adaptable, tough under pressure and a good team player.My understanding of the industry, having worked from the bottom up to leading on a big budget project, has allowed me to be confident in my own abilities. I have been able to pass on the skills I have learned effectively through both my in-house roles and my books.I am the author of two successful technical manuals, Game Character Development in Maya (published in 2004) and Game Character Development (published in 2008). These have been popular and have been translated into many different languages including Chinese. I am also currently in discussion with another publisher about writing my third title which will be based upon Nevercenter's modeling package, Silo.In my spare time, I like to develop my artistic skills further by working on personal projects. I have recently had one of my images selected for publication in 'Exotique 4'.This is one of a series of books produced by Ballistic Publishing, widely thought of as the benchmark for computer generated art. Entrants from 45 countries worldwide submit their work for consideration, therefore I was honored to be one of the few chosen.
