Perspective Drawing
I'm a purposeful designer and an abstract thinker in relentless
pursuit of simple, impactful, beautiful solutions. I like to find playful
ways to blend form and function, and when it comes to execution,
I'm meticulous. I have a wide array of technical production skills, and
with the right specs, I can build you just about anything. I’m a team
player, a creative problem solver, and my work ethic is second to none.
I'm devoted to my work, and I'm at my happiest when I'm in the
groove, watching something amazing come together on my screen.
After a decade of experience in Toronto, I decided to get back
to my roots and move back home to Manitoba. I love culture, and pop
culture, and seeing and doing brand new things. I also love being out
in nature. I'm currently working toward my dream of buying a house on
some acreage and building a small hobby farm and animal rescue.
