What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative environment that fosters creativity and innovation in game design.

As an Environment Artist with a strong foundation in game design and computer graphics, I am dedicated to creating unforgettable interactive experiences. My journey began with a Higher Vocational Education Certificate in Game Art, followed by advanced studies in Product Design and Interactive Media & Technology. This educational background has equipped me with a diverse skill set that I have honed through various internships and professional roles.

Most recently, I worked at Your Open Metaverse in Utrecht, where I was responsible for environment concepting, level testing, and the development of game-ready assets. My role involved technical coordination with external agencies, ensuring that game levels were not only visually stunning but also optimized for performance across different platforms. I take pride in my ability to blend creativity with technical expertise, producing high-quality assets that enhance gameplay and storytelling.
