About

I am an innovative, passionate, and driven creative with over ten years of experience as a lead artist on video slots and over 15 years of experience in graphic design. I am also the principal artist for the Central Merchandise Team where I create and review art for all game signage for IGT.

As a Game Artist - and often, the sole artist on my games - I am proficient in concept, design, layout, typography, animation, and motion graphics. I know what it takes to motivate a team to beat their dates and deliver proven hits. I believe we must always move forward and innovate, and spend time every week researching the top new games and trends in the industry. I have a passion for game design and have many blue sky ideas of my own. I am a forward-thinker, with a portfolio of game ideas and patents that showcase my innovation. My accolades as a Game Artist include being awarded patents, winning several game/merchandise design competitions within IGT, and delivering Proven Performers including Wheel of Fortune: Cash Link.

As a Graphic Designer, I understand the importance of typography, color, layout and balance in a cohesive, appealing design and the importance in todays world of UI, UX and omnichannel marketing. I have worked on product design, web/app design, and various other mediums in my over fifteen years of experience with clients such as AEG, MetaSpace Studios, Unsanity LLC and The 501st Legion.
