Artist Statement Rev 1.0

Being both a gamer, a programmer, and an artist has its quirks and perks.  I have always loved playing computer games, but ever since I started high school, I was tempted to create my own. I soon learned how to program, however I was impressed by how the artwork would add so much to the game play. From there, I had made it a goal for myself to create games that combined the best game play with some of the best visual elements I could. In that manner, I am a self taught programmer who has specialties in creating visuals for highly interactive games. As part of this goal, I enjoy putting together programs and art that is not only functional but also beautiful in  design and nature. I plan to continue my investigation and endeavors at Drexel University this fall.
