ABOUT

I'm a 26-year-old gay man from Medford, MA who enjoys tabletop and video games, animated T.V. shows and films, and comic books and graphic novels. I'm a bird enthusiast, and parrots are my weakness. I enjoy cooking good food, stargazing, and warm-weather beaches.

I run my own studio -- Studio Blue Jay, a small indie studio passionate about creating diverse stories, cute birds, and badass games and animations! 🏳️‍🌈🦜🎮

 

I graduated from Bridgewater State University in May 2020 with a BA in Fine Arts and a minor in Biology. I participated in the School of Visual Arts's online summer residency in Illustration and Visual Storytelling: Art/Industry in the summer of 2020. 

 

I studied Computer Art and Animation at Syracuse University for an MFA for a year from 2021 to 2022. I then studied Interactive Media for an MFA at Clark University, and graduated in May 2024.

 

From 2021 to 2024 at MassDiGI, I was a 2D game artist and animator who worked on three games ('Crustacean Frustration', 'Get Low, Grandpa!', and 'Merge Monastery'), and helped market five games ('Aliens Want Our Mascot?!', 'Merge Monastery', 'Milo's Magical Adventure', 'Rock On, Raccoon!', and 'Rodent Rampage').

​

The focus of my artwork is prominently on character design and illustration for the animation and game development fields. Much of my inspiration comes from my passion for captivating stories filled with vast worlds and unique characters.
