As a child I found myself interested in illustration, but years of listening to the old view that art never reliably led to a successful life led me to believe that no good could come of it.

I turned to chemistry as I believed it was my only career path available to me. However, as I grew and matured, I realised that while that may have been true of painters at the time, it was patently false for designers as a whole.

Illustrators, label designers, brand designers and many more, designers all. Now these were careers I could pour my talent and time into.

After completing my science degree and working for a few years as a quality assurance officer, I turned my eyes toward a career as a Game Artist, studying at Western Sydney University to see exactly where my talents lie. Four years of dedicated study had me realise my future lay in illustration and 3D modeling.
