About

I have worked in both the Games Industry and Games Education for almost 19 years. I've worked at AAA studios such as Evolution and Bizarre Creations where I worked as part of the team on a number of titles during that period. More recently, I worked at Antimatter Games as their Art Manager on two of their upcoming games.

As an educator, I have taught Game Art at both Degree and Masters level and was instrumental in the design as well as the development of the curriculum for some of those courses.

My areas of expertise are Game Art, Traditional Art, Design as well as Project Management.

I am now enjoying being back in Education again as part of the games team at Derby and helping the next generation of talent to take their first steps in the Games Industry.

Teaching responsibilities

I currently teach across all the games programmes in the Games Department and specialise in Game Development, 3D and life drawing.
