Animator/Interactive Designer
Scher Group - Cleveland, OH
2002-2004
I was responsible for the creation and implementation of Scher Group’s “Education Challenge” series of business training games. I created concepts and design as well as illustration and animation for 3 games in the series. I also helped with scripting and helped organize the programmers and artists on the project.

I helped create marketing materials for advertisements, and coordinated with the marketing department to develop campaigns.

I also created webpage templates for re-sellers and created easily editable flash elements for web based training software. In addition I cleaned up a back-log of work, illustrations and interactive flash elements, that had bogged down the art department before I started.
