What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities to create immersive characters and environments in a collaborative and innovative game development team.

As a passionate character artist, I have honed my skills in creating AAA level high-fidelity characters and environments for top-tier games. My journey began with a Diploma in Character and Creature Creation for Games, where I learned to transform concept art into stunning 3D representations. My experience includes working on renowned titles such as FIFA 22 and the GTA Trilogy Definitive Edition, where I was credited for my contributions as a character artist.

Throughout my career, I have developed a strong expertise in various tools and techniques, including ZBrush, Maya, and Unreal Engine. I take pride in my ability to sculpt high-poly models and create optimized low-poly versions, ensuring that my work meets the highest industry standards. My dedication to the craft is reflected in my meticulous attention to detail and my commitment to delivering high-quality assets that enhance the gaming experience.
