Experience

• Multimedia Artist and Animator at Potawatomi Training

  Irwin PA

  May 2022 - September 2023

  - Set up 3D scenes withing modeling and video effect software to create complex videos and still images used within Interactive Multimedia Instruction (IMI).

  - Most videos replicated every step of procedures on various types of assemblies in order to properly train the user.

  - Worked closely with subject matter experts to ensure accuracy.

  - Creating 3D assets for training videos using PBR workflow.

  - Manipulation and creation of 2D assets.

• 3D Environment Artist at Engineering & Computer Simulations

  White Oak PA

  January 2019 - May 2022

  - Worked in a classified environment for the Department of Energy, to create highly detailed simulations.

  - While the exact details of the contract cannot be listed, this shows the ability to work with highly sensitive material and environments as well as pass all necessary background checks.

• 3D Modeler and Team Lead at Transtecs

  Chesapeake

  December 2013 - December 2018

  - Recreated mechanical components in 3DS Max to be used in the NGrain training software.

  - These included a full engine, boiler systems, air compressors, and various valves.

  - 3D assets for each component needed to be made all the way down to individual nuts and bolts.

  - Once the modeling process was done, used the NGrain software to create interactive training for a variety of procedures.

  - Later became a project lead to help head and organize projects for the Virtual Task Trainer (VTT) department.

  - Led several reference gathering trips to secure photos and videos of all material needed for our contracts.

• Unity 3D Programmer at C2 Technologies

  Newport News

  November 2012 - November 2013

  - Worked as a programmer for the Unity 3D Engine to create simulations for the U.S. Army Combined Arms Products for Distributed Learning (CAPDL)—Judge Advocate General Courses.

  - These simulations replicated entire environments both inside and outside to immerse the user.

  - Worked with a team to create series of simulations for blackboard, web browsers, and mobile (iPad and iOS).
