I'm an American expat (immigrant) in Finland. I'm trying to juggle running a business with learning 3D art and animation with a bit of computer building on the side.

I built my first computer back in 2019, my only current build. Next up, I'm planning a monster workstation build similar to the one I've built but with water cooling and some other interesting custom features. I should be ready about when the 13th gen Intel CPUs, the PCIe 5 Samsung SSDs, and the RTX 4000 series cards are out. I expect it will be a pretty serious computer and will hopefully turn some heads as well. Now I've just got to get my 3D skills up to where they deserve a rig like that.

Talking loudly, cooking, creating unexceptional 3D art...

I used to build wooden boats, I can build complex cabinetry/woodwork, houses (frame to finish) and commercial buildings too, I'm fairly mechanically inclined and understand basic electrical, electronic, welding, and plumbing. Sadly I sold all my tools (most of my tools, everything with a plug) when I left the USA so I don't get to build things too much anymore. Fortunately it doesn't come up a lot in the cushy (stressful) desk job I've got these days.

I dabble in:
Blender
After Effects
Photoshop
Adobe Illustrator
Premier Pro
Substance Designer
Marmoset Toolbag
Quixel Mixer
Other stuff...
