Biography

Currently residing in Sydney, Australia. I am perpetually studying to grow as an artist and person. I have worked in a variety of fields and but it has only been a recent but slow transition where I have focused my mind to listen to my heart and head towards concept art. My dream is to one day work as an artist for a film or video game company and create visually distinct and narrative focused works. I also have this idea nagging me in the head that I wish to develop in a short film one day.
