Colin Koestler’s Summary

I was Jr. Environment artist on an unannounced project that is currently in the process of completion. I feel that the team, which I was a part of is very gifted and will turn out a great next gen game. I have an urge to create great games and work in a team. I hope to find a studio that has an opening that will allow me to grow and expand my knowledge as an artist in a fun environment.

Additional Information

Colin Koestler’s Interests:

First, art is a passion of mine and will always be a big part of my life. I would also say that I am an avid gamer; it doesn't matter what the game is board, card, or console/PC. Any genre as long as it is interesting. I read a lot and tend to be a life long learner as well. Travel is another biggie in my life I have currently traveled to about 13% of the worlds nations and look to do more in the future. I hope to be able to say that I have circumnavigated around the world by country hoping.
