Andrei Octavian Crisan

Aside from constantly trying to improve, I'm hoping to eventually get my foot in the door and become a professional environment artist.

Corny as it may sound, when I was a kid I managed to get my hands on a CD that happened to have a map editor for the original Half Life on it (Worldcraft aka Hammer/VHE). "Oh cool, I can make my own games!". So I started making maps that I would later torture my poor friends into playing -- in hindsight, these early maps were pretty terrible, although that did serve as my first contact with the concept of game design.
