Summary
As soon as I graduated from art school, I worked on a small project fixing a flash animation called, "Vote the Environment" with Free Range Studios. I had a brief tryst creating line drawings for Voltage Entertainment in the dating sim game app of "My Lover is a Thief" that was a port from Japan's more popular app, and also, "To Love and Protect." I continued working on projects with Free Range Studios, and have since created some rewarding animated videos about sustainability and environmental awareness.
I am looking for the next big project to allow me to contribute and get my hands dirty with design work.
