Summary

Hello,

I graduated from Tribeca Flashpoint Media Arts Academy in Chicago. I left there with Associates Degree for game art. I have a passion for video games, not just playing them, but looking at them, analyzing them, and finally one of the funniest parts of breaking them and making thing from them when I have time.

I have been in the game industry for four year spread over 5 different jobs. The First was a QA testing position at Wargaming Chicago-Baltimore. While I was there I tested World of Tanks Xbox 360 Edition. I worked there for a little under two years. I left Wargaming to go at work at NetherRealm Studios as an Associate Artist. While I was there I made art assets for both MKX and MKX(Mobile). The third one was when I am working as a QA Test on Agents of Mayhem for Deep Silver Volition. My fourth one was working at Illfonic as a QA tester testing Friday the 13th. Currently I am working on Nether Realm as an Qa Tester.

When I am not at work testing games or playing them at home. I am making 3D models of the stuff I love. Witch is a lot of Warhammer and hard surface stuff. I have experience 3D printing which is most used for making Yoda stuff for my dad , making miniatures and shelving. Also because I am a Warhammer fan I do have armies which are mostly painted and lastly I have done body work on cars and motorcycles. So yes, I do now how to sand.

If you find my skills and experience to be a good fit for this position and for your company. I would be more than happy to share with you about my background and experience and to learn more about your employment needs.
Sincerely Michael.
