Hi! Thanks for looking at my website! I’m a technical artist with 3 years of experience in the UK games industry and currently working at Spliced Inc.
In my personal projects I like to tackle new concepts and expand upon my knowledge. I’ve been using Unity and Unreal throughout my education and professional career and whilst I have a soft spot for Unreal, I enjoy the programming practise I get from working in Unity.
I have a keen interest in shaders, materials and graphics pipelines, always delving into the world of real time rendering for inspiration. I’ve had the pleasure of working on shaders, materials, in-engine pipelines, tooling, VFX and profiling in my career.
Outside of games I play piano and guitar and have spent the last few years practising my photography skills. Portraits and live music are my favourite things to shoot and I love shooting film to capture important memories.
