Environment artist, game artist, and 2d/3d designer living in Salt Lake City, Utah. Raised by wolves in the foothills of Mongolia, I once happened upon a snowy glen wherein was magicked an epic sword. The weapon was infused with an ancient power, and as I gingerly grasped the leather-wrapped hilt, the galaxy suddenly unfolded before my wide eyes until, at the cusp of ruin, when I was all but given to destruction, a single, piercing voice flashed fire into my very soul as it uttered within my heart: "Make art." So I do.
