Bio
Chad Mirshak
Dan and I worked together from literally day two of my joining the Halo Infinite team. Since that time, Dan and his team have proven to be a fantastic partner to our project and have become our go-to for the majority of our emblem, nameplate, and background reward content. Dan is a strong design leader, able to articulate visions and align stakeholders like myself to it, and is a clear, professional communicator - not only in pitching and reviewing ideas or discussing feedback, but also in more challenging conversations (disagreement on a direction, lack of clarity about a deliverable, etc.) that happen from time to time. Over the years I have very much considered him an extension of our internal team, and could always trust that the work coming from Atomhawk under his watch would be thoughtful, polished, all while meeting the product goals we laid out. I wouldn't hesitate to work with Dan again.
Karen Segars
Dan is an absolute pleasure to work with. Early on, he strives to understand the game and the art style to ensure he delivers quality work that fits in perfectly. Whether he is doing the work himself, or guiding artists working on the project, he has an exceptional eye for detail, asks relevant questions, and integrates feedback quickly.
