Bio

Highly motivated, always willing to learn, looking for work in area's I specialize in... No I do not want to work at a customer service call center... Have a Bachelor of Science in Computer Animation, my disciplines are being an Environment Artist, Modeler and Texture Artist. Have worked in the Video Game Industry at AAA game studios. Who would have thought a Combat Engineer would achieve that? Dysfunctional Veteran, highly motivated to learn, its been a crazy ride... wishing at times I was still in. Looking for my next place of employment before I go crazy... Please don't PM me if I do not know you and call me bob like you know me.... even those that know me know better than to call me bob. If anyone knows someone at a gaming studio hiring, or a govt simulation company hiring please let me know.
