Congrats to everyone on the DDO team! Menace of the Underdark was the first project I worked on when I started at Turbine, and it's been my favorite so far! I had a ton of fun with the new monsters for the expansion, especially the Draegloth and Yuan-Ti. The past few months I've been having a blast working on all the cool new creatures for the updates - so check them out at ddo.com. It's free to get started!

Congrats to the whole Turbine LOTRO team for putting together such a great expansion! I certainly had a lot of fun working with everyone on Riders of Rohan this summer. I even included one of the horse fidgets I animated on my demo reel!
