Bio
Having graduated UCA Farnham with a First Class BA (Hons), he utilised his diverse skills within the creative industries alongside freelance design services and consultation for indie teams.
During this time, he built a strong sense of aesthetics and thorough client-focused mindset, which directly informs his approach to mentoring students.
After delivering educational content through social media on concept art and design workflows, he discovered a passion for teaching and subsequently joined the academic staff at UCA.
He ensures considerations for gameplay, game-engine, narrative, and overall pipeline-requirements are embedded into both his design outcomes and academic work.
