\n

As an artist at the ETC, I continue to employ and improve my 3D modeling and animation skills. Inspired by series like Halo and Elder Scrolls most interested in creating worlds that liberate players by allowing them to impose their will rather than force them to follow a path laid out by a designer. Outside the ETC, I work at a startup aerodynamics company, designing and patenting fuel saving devices for long haul trucks.<\/p>\n
