About

Hello! I am a concept artist specializing in pre-production and production concept art and illustration. I typically work on visualizing and iterating new ideas or visually developing existing parts of the game, using techniques such as creating concepts and reference boards, thumbnailing, overpainting, photobashing or storyboarding. Additionally, I have experience in art direction, cinematics creation, in-game illustrations, graphic elements, UI and marketing support. Outside of work, you'll find me diving into books and comics, gardening, cycling, and most often, hanging out with my family and dogs.
