OCT 2011 - JAN 2015

It was during that time that I realized computer animation could combine my love for art and this desire to work in computer graphics. So after graduating from FIU with a BFA, I enrolled at 

Full Sail University for a Bachelor's Degree in​ Computer Animation. 

At Full Sail, I learned everything about computer animation, from modeling to rigging, texturing to animating, and much more. It was an honor to graduate as valedictorian and my dream of being a CG Artist became a reality. 

Formerly a UI Artist for 2K Games and had the pleasure of shipping 5 titles for the NBA 2K Video Game Franchise. I'm very proud to have worked for such an acclaimed series and hope you enjoy the games as much as I enjoyed developing for them.


Currently a Motion Graphics Artist for EA Sports, working on the longtime Madden NFL Franchise.


My love for art and animation is equaled only by the love I have for my family, my fraternity (Phi Gamma Delta - Fiji),

my alma maters, and my friends. 

I currently reside in Florida.
