Teaching is a passion of mine and I have 15+ years experience with Cinema 4D (plus Octane and Redshift) and the Adobe Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Premiere, After Effects, XD) and 4 with CAD design (F360, Solidworks, OnShape, Rhino [please be aware I am NOT an architect], and Keyshot). I have also developed proficiency with Arduino and doing visual programming (only, I don't know C or Python) with Scratch and TinkerCAD. I have shown hundreds of students, from beginner to advanced, how to use design software more effectively.

I have the knowledge and knowhow to take you from the conception of an idea all the way through completion.

15+ Years of experience with Cinema 4D and the Adobe Suite. College level teaching proficiency with Solidworks, Fusion 360, Onshape, and Rhino. Hobbiest level experience with Arduino and programming.

10 Year of college level 3D art instruction.

I look forward to working with you and helping you improve your mastery of software!

Devin taught me the basics of adobe illustrator that I needed to get started. i was able to create a new wine label today with what he showed me. Thank you very much for your help and patience.

Great First Session

Devin did a great job reaching out with over view of what I need to accomplish for my design needs. I look forward to continuing our sessions and accomplishing my goals with Cinema4D.

What an amazing tutor! Learned a lot and enjoyed doing it

Nothing negative to say about him. He knows what he’s doing and can patiently and effectively communicate that to his students. He’s been a tremendous help to me and my project and I’m not sure how I would have done it without him.

Great teacher

He was very understanding and clear! Helped a bunch and I’m excited to work with him in the near future.

So far so good

Day 1 we went through the basics. YouTube videos are great, but to have someone to ask questions in real time was a real time saver for me. I'm guessing 1 hour of tutoring saved me about 8 hours of messing around pressing buttons by myself, which makes it an incredible value. Devin seems to have a good routine to go through for newbs like myself and was able to transition quickly and effectively when questions arose. Looking forward to more lessons.

Well Versed, Experienced, Patient Tutor

Devin demonstrated the best practices for working with Mograph objects like cloners and MoText, as well as how to best use effectors, and fields. Also helped with better understanding of coordinate systems and shortcut menus.
