J is a lifelong artist, and veteran creative pro of 20 years. His primary focus is 3D & interactive design. When not tanning in front of computer monitors obsessing over every pixel, he digs cycling, arts, science and homebrewing, traveling, and outdoor adventures. He is semi-fluent in Japanese language, foods, and culture, always enjoys a good (or bad) joke, and writing bios about himself in the 3rd person.
Music has always been a major part of J’s life. Went from piano to alto sax to being the frontman (guitar and vocals) in his youth, where they recorded an e.p. & one full length album before he was 21. He also was a DJ in the Dallas scene for over a decade, holds two certifications in pro audio, and produces music and collabs under multiple monikers. J loves tweaking knobs and parameters on synthesizers, and his musical tastes span across many genres. The playlist below is only a tiny taste!
