Dave teaches Animation, Game Design 1, and Adobe Illustrator 1. He graduated with a BS in Game Art and Development in 2015 from The Art Institute of Pittsburgh and has spent the last ten years creating freelance art, graphic design, and 3D art.
When not teaching, Dave creates functional and fun 3D models for 3D printing, ranging from toys and tabletop miniatures to electronics cases, hardware, and sculptures. He recently funded his first kickstarter for 3D printed miniatures, and has more coming soon!
Dave loves character design, animation, and visual storytelling. He is committed not only to teaching the technical elements of animation and working in 3D, but also imparting the passion he has for characters, storytelling, and visual art to his students. 🎮💻
