Currently Studying at the Academy of Art University in San Francisco with a focus in low to mid poly modeling and texture art, Rachael Berkman is in her third year. Among her out of school hobbies, she dabbles in rigging, 3D animation, piano, and rock climbing.
Looking forward, her goal is to finish college with an industry internship already under her professional tool belt. After, graduation she wants to settle down in a studio, big or small, with a team of passionate people as dedicated to making beautiful and immersive games as she is.
