Throughout my life, I always enjoyed the process of creation. Growing up, I would sit down after school and draw the characters I watched on television. Art was always encouraged, as my mother and grandmother, introduced me to new mediums, projects, and techniques to help explore my passion.

​

Growing up in the outer suburbs of Chicago, gaming was always a part of my life as an outlet to be someone else. Holidays always meant Nintendo tournaments between the cousins and I have fond memories of my brother and I playing James Bond 007 on the original Xbox in our little gaming nook. 

Oustide of games,  I had many other interests. I studied the art of classical ballet under various instructors from prestigious ballet companies, such as New York City Ballet,  San Francisco Ballet, Odessa Government Theatre, and the Joffery Ballet in Chicago. In high school, I developed a love for the digital arts and illustration. This is when I started to experiment combining two familiar art forms I knew, expressive movement and digital media, which led me to pursue a degree in Visual Effects at the Savannah College of Art and Design, with a minor in 3D Animation.

​

My journey has brought me to work with Microsoft's Turn 10 Studios, out in beautiful Redmond, WA, as a Look Development artist. My focus is to bridge the gap between the technical and art development, helping our creative teams problem solve and explore new methods of capturing content. I like to be a jack of many trades, which has only helped me become more well-rounded as an artist, a teammate, and a creative thinker.
