What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to grow as a 3D artist in a collaborative environment, where I can contribute creatively and refine my skills further.

I am currently pursuing an MA in 3D Computer Animation at Bournemouth University, specializing in environment art. My journey into the world of 3D began with an undergraduate course in Game Design, where I gained a solid foundation in various software and industry practices. I have a strong grasp of the entire pipeline—from modeling and texturing to lighting and rendering, and I am skilled in creating high-quality assets for both real-time and pre-rendered applications.

With experience in Unreal Engine, I have created a short cinematic that showcases my ability to craft immersive and visually compelling worlds. My passion for 3D art drives me to express my creativity through this medium. Additionally, my years of experience as a waiter have honed my problem-solving skills, time management, and ability to thrive in fast-paced environments, which I believe are invaluable in any professional setting.
