About Me

I'm a 3D artist specializing in Texturing and Modeling.
​​​
Since 2023, I have worked at the game studio, Red Team Interactive, as their lead 3D artist. In my time there, I have spent most of my time working on Sail VR, which is consistently ranked as one of the top 50 most popular VR games on the MetaQuest store. I've also worked on Monsters and Mazes VR and Hard Drive VR, both popular VR games.
​
From 2019-2023 I studied animation at Brigham Young University, earning a Bachelor's of Fine Arts in Animation. There, I worked on my first large-scale collaborative project, a short student film titled "The Witch's Cat." I modeled and textured multiple previs and production assets using a USD pipeline in Houdini to streamline the film's progress. I also lit multiple shots on the film.
From 2020-2023, I worked as an animation production specialist for BYUtv in Provo, UT. There, I had the opportunity to work on multiple collaborative projects, including animated TV show intros and commercial holiday sweepers.
​
I am half French and half American (and a dual citizen). Having grown up in the United States, I took frequent trips throughout my childhood to visit my family in France, and I draw a lot of inspiration from French culture in my work. When I was 19 years old, I lived in Versailles, France for almost two years. Although I am currently back in the States, I love to travel to France when I can.

Some of my favorite things in the world include doing pilates, snowboarding through some fresh powder, traveling the world, painting, and baking.
