Summary
Hi, I'm Joe. I design, draw, paint, and model, and animate, often for my own projects or freelance work. I also write and program. I have undergrad degrees in Graphic Design and Painting, and I have a Masters in Interactive Technology. I've worked in software for something like 10 years, and spent a year in the video game industry before going independent to make my own tabletop games, supported by Kickstarter.
