Experience

  • Art Director/Co-Creator at Quest Chest / FoxWing Games
    Chicago, US
    December 2022 - Present

    I am the co-founder of FoxWing Games, creator of Quest Chests, Artifacts Arcana, and much more. I oversee the visual development and direction of all creative assets, co-write and produce the materials with my business partner, hire artists, and create much of the visual materials for our products myself.

  • Creative Director at Theta Studios, LLC.
    Bull Valley, United States of America
    October 2013 - November 2015

    I oversaw the creative team of an independent game studio that I co-founded, created digital assets for use in multiple projects, wrote much of the dialogue and lore for multiple projects, and developed video game character and accurate creature anatomy content. One of our projects had over 10,000 downloads on the Android app market.
