After flipping through The Art of Star Wars for the first time at age eight, seeing the incredible works of Ralph McQuarrie and Joe Johnston, I knew I wanted to pursue a career in Concept Design. I was raised in Dublin, Ohio and graduated Cum Laude  from the Columbus College of Art & Design with a Bachelors of Fine Art in Illustration. I also completed the one year Entertainment Design track at the Gnomon School of Visual Effects, where I refined the necessary skills to pursue a career in film and game concept art.

I currently live in Glendale, California.
