When I was in high school trying to figure out how I could make a career out of my artistic talent, I stumbled across a scholarship to a 3D animation course which started me on a career in video games, modelling environments and characters. Until that point I hadn’t really thought about how I could get work in an artistic field, especially not in computer graphics.

I actually got given the advice of taking maths in senior high school because at that point career advisors still thought you needed to know how to program to use a computer to create art. There really weren’t the options of courses that are available now, so I was quite lucky to fall into it.
