"I'm very passionate about 3D. I'm currently helping students in Maya, Z-Brush, Blender, Substance Painter, and Procreate. I've been teaching Autodesk Maya and Maxon ZBrush at a college level for 18 years. I'm currently teaching along side professional Disney Animators at Laguna College of Art + Design (LCAD). I have experience tutoring students 1-on-1 since 2006. In 2010 I won "Teacher of the Year" at my college and two years later I won a world wide award "CG and VFX instructor of the Year" by Digital Tutors.

I specialize in 3D Modeling (high and low poly) / UV Mapping / Texturing / Rigging / Materials / Rendering / Lighting / Dynamics / Animation.

My professional profile outside of teaching includes a wide range of real world experience. I have posed and lit characters for "The Order 1886" (Playstation 4). I was a character modeler / texture artist / and rigger for Gemvara. I've done modeling / lighting / rendering for several iPhone and iPad apps. I've worked on some independent games, product visualizations and have one of the top rated online 3D libraries in the world. I've been teaching Maya since 2006 but have been mastering it since 2002. I'm a generalist but prefer modeling.

Please feel free to contact me! I'm excited to help you achieve your 3D goals." less...
