Web Design & Development
Design
When I started out as a web designer my focus until then had been solely based on learning new web technologies and how to code. But once I started building websites for clients on a daily basis, I learned that no framework or technology can make a boring website look good or innovative to a client. That’s when I started to teach myself design principles, color theory, and physiology of design, and within a year I found myself managing a web department and directly responsible for my employer’s company website.
Development
I enjoy the freedom and seemingly limitless potential that comes with being a programmer. When I was just starting out I was excited about simple interactivity like changing images with mouse over events, but now I’m understanding the true potential of what a skilled programmer can accomplish. A few years ago I started getting into simple robotics after getting my first Raspberry Pi, and with it I picked up a small kit full of sensors and servos and within a few weeks I was building my first wifi remote controlled robot.
Genuine Innovation
Removing boundaries. Doing things not believed possible.

Unity3D
I’ve experimented with other game development platforms, and Unity has been the only one that has resonated with me. It’s scalable and has a large online community, with tons of great tutorials on YouTube and educational sites. It was a little rocky getting the hang of it, but after I started getting familiar with all the features it became very fun to build environments, animate characters, and script new features and interactivity.
Level Development
Bringing characters and worlds alive has always been a dream of mine as a lifelong gaming enthusiast. My initial interest turned to 2D side scroller and top down types of games once I became familiar with Unity and Phaser.io because of nostalgia, but I’ve actually found that now I more enjoy developing 3D games and assets because of how fun it is.
Animation
There is little to me as satisfying as creating a character from scratch and making original animations for them. Being able to breathe life into a new creation is a very rewarding task. My journey into 3D modeling originally began because I wanted to make casing for robotics/engineering projects I had been working on.
3D Modeling
Creating 3D models is fun, but has been taken to a whole new level since I’ve been able to print them out. I’ve also been able to ramp up production on models I’ve made by creating reusable silicon molds out of them, allowing me to quickly make duplicates in minutes with quick drying resin.
Blender
The idea of getting into 3D modeling used to seem very daunting, but a few years ago I gave it a shot and worked through some Maya tutorials. In no time I had created a couple of trees, an arcade cabinet, and a simple building. While fairly simple assets from my perspective today, the accomplishment I felt after importing those assets into a scene in Unity was enough to light the fire of a strong passion I hold to this day. Maya was a great 3D modeling tool, but I found that after I gave Blender a go, it felt better suited for my process. With Blender not only can I make all the low poly assets I need, I also use it to create 3D animations for humanoid rigs, such as the ones on this page.
Web Development
Good web sites are more than just text and images, there is an art in driving people to call to actions and conversions. Luckily for you this is an art I understand better than most.
Swing OverGraphic Design
Good graphical assets can captivate and set the tone for any visual project, they can also tell a story or convey meaning quicker than words can if done right. Take a look at what I’ve been up to!
