After completing 2 years of education at the Dudley College of Technology studying a BTEC in Computer Games Design, I was given a "University of Wolverhampton Progression Scholarship" which awarded me with a place at the University as well as a grant to spend.
During my time at University, I managed to complete my Duke of Edinburgh Silver Award which involved completing 4 different categories of work; Physical, Volunteering, Skill and the final expedition. Upon finishing my time at the University of Wolverhampton, I achieved an "Enterprise and Employability Gold Award" which was for preparing myself to become a freelance artist, including the creation of a website, logo and business card.
In my spare time, I have become an avid "Boulderer" which is a form of rock climbing without the safety equipment, which I do at my local gym. Bouldering is a social sport which has allowed to meet lots of new people as well as push my body to its limits trying to figure out and complete bouldering problems. As a result, this has made me a much more confident person and allowed me to find out how much willpower I have by trying challenging routes. I started Bouldering in October 2019 and would describe myself as a V2-4 climber and cant wait to progress and see where I stand in October 2020.
Found below will be a copy of my CV if anyone has stumble upon my portfolio and is interested in hiring me as well as a "contact me" section, for anyone with general questions, enquiries or comments they wish to send me, all feedback is always welcome.
My name is Jay and I am currently working as a Junior Artist in the gaming industry. I have a bachelors level background in Computer Games Design and decided to follow my passion of 3D art as both a career and a hobby. I loved creating unique and interesting designs which can be visualised using my knowledge of 3D software as well as the 3D modelling workflow I incorporate into my work. Even though I graduated the University of Wolverhampton in 2018 with a First Class Degree, I would still consider myself a ‘forever student,’ eager to both build my academic foundations in the Computer Games Design industry and stay in tune with the latest digital innovations through continued coursework.
