   From a young age, I was deeply engrossed in the world of gaming, because of this I realized my aspiration to become a game developer. My artistic journey began with experimental typography, which ignited my quest for innovative avenues to channel my creativity. This pursuit led me to acquire skills in video editing, content creation, photo manipulation, and more, eventually propelling my artwork into the third dimension! By leveraging industry-standard software, I began creating 3D models and worlds for animated and still pieces, bringing me one step closer to my dream of game development. With a comprehensive understanding of computer technologies, I enrolled in the Digital Futures program at OCAD U. This program provided me the opportunity to apply my accumulated knowledge and skills, resulting in the creation of numerous games and interactive experiences across a variety of subjects. This journey has allowed me to delve into technologies that intrigued me, such as Virtual Reality, and Real-Time Production. Today I employ these skills to grow my creative venture Suburb. A company dedicated to exploring and expanding all interactive mediums, while fostering a positive community space that encourages creation and experimentation.
