Kevin Boykin

3D Artist
“After two years of college, and several majors later, Kevin stumbled into Richland's Interactive Simulation and Game Technology program. He had never taken an art class before, so he was surprised to find his niche in Character Sculpting, although that didn't stop him from learning how to code in C# Unity as well as becoming a valuable asset on the program's Level Design teams.”
