Origins
When I was 11, I started my first business selling Minecraft animations on YouTube. I loved Minecraft and making digital art, so I taught myself how to use Cinema 4D, Blender, Maya, and the Adobe Creative Cloud by watching free tutorials online.
I posted my early work on YouTube and worked for free until I could charge content creators for my work. By high school the channel had crossed 10k subscribers and 2.4M views. I eventually grew out of Minecraft, but my experience working in 3D animation studios sparked my interest in simulation environments.
