What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters creativity and innovation, where I can lead projects and mentor others while continuing to grow my skills in 3D art and game design.

I am a creative and innovative 3D Artist with over 10 years of progressive experience in 3D modeling, digital sculpting, texturing, lighting, and graphic design. My hands-on experience in designing and building video games, combined with a strong background in hi-poly and low-poly modeling, has equipped me with a unique skill set that I leverage to create immersive experiences. I have a proven track record of mentoring junior artists and leading teams to optimize assets for games and VR experiences.

Throughout my career, I have worked with diverse teams across the globe, including a significant stint in Toronto, Canada. My expertise spans character modeling, environment art, and game engines, allowing me to contribute effectively to various projects. I am passionate about expanding the imagination to build creative spaces and 3D games, ensuring that every project I undertake is not only visually stunning but also technically sound.
