I’m a 3D prop and environment designer. I greybox spaces, build modular kits, and put hero objects where the player is likely to look. A lot of the work sits between art and design: how a hut reads from the air, how a hologram marks a doorway, how a rug and a row of vinyl make an attic feel lived in. At Full Sail my thesis focused on diegetic user interfaces — information that lives in the world instead of on a HUD. The holograms on RHM grew out of that.

On Elixir Blitz: Saya’s Trials I was a level designer and prop designer, with a few passes of gameplay work. I built a floating island so a flying mount could forage in the open, then lit it and dressed the backdrops so the world felt larger than the playspace. On My First Regeneration I designed props for a crashed time traveler — a drone, a reactor, and the crystals that help you leave. On RHM: The Foundation I built holograms in the material editor, the attic they sit in, and a secret stage with audio-reactive Niagara. At Zygobot Studios I managed and authored assets for Unreal and Unity so props stayed inside size and budget. Between projects I keep a small shelf of independent props: a bridge, a pillar, a table, a pendant, a skeleton.

I earned a B.A. in Game Design at Southern New Hampshire University in 2024, then an M.S. in Game Design at Full Sail University in 2025, graduating as valedictorian with a 3.96 GPA. I’m based in Princeton, Texas, and looking for 3D environment and prop roles — kits, hero objects, and levels that feel good to play in.
