I realized I wanted to go into the creative field when I Had just gotten my degree for animal care and started my position at the petting zoo. I really enjoyed it, but it wasn't what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. Since art was my real passion, I ended up at game Artist after looking into other studies.

There was never a single point where I realised I wanted to work in the creative industry. I grew up drawing, saw my dad modelling 3D models, while my brother went to art school. I guess I developed my love for art in this environment and wanted that to be my job. It wasn't until I actually enrolled into art school, that I decided I wanted to become a character artist.

As a teenager, I played a lot of GTA San Andreas. When I finished the game, I downloaded mods to make the game look all funky. One day, I decided to learn how to make my own mods. I downloaded Google Sketchup and started learning how to make 3D models. When I had to apply to a course at college, I applied for "Game Art" so I could make my hobby to make 3D art into a job.

The last year of my middle school(about 4 years ago) i got really into art and drawing and thought it would be awesome if i were able to do it for a living
