What I'm looking for

I am looking for a collaborative environment that fosters creativity and innovation, where I can contribute my skills in 3D artistry and continue to grow professionally.

As a passionate 3D Artist with over eight years of experience, I specialize in producing high-quality 3D assets for games, architectural visualization, and animation. My expertise lies in modeling, texturing, and rendering using industry-standard tools such as Maya, ZBrush, Substance Painter, and Unreal Engine. I have a proven track record of managing teams and collaborating with designers and engineers to create cohesive visual styles that meet project milestones.

In my current role as a Senior 3D Artist at Everyrealm, I have designed and built immersive 3D environments, characters, and props for real-time applications. My work includes developing cinematic animations and environmental storytelling elements that enhance narrative and gameplay. I have successfully baked over 10 battle pass skins and hero outfits, ensuring performance efficiency while maintaining visual fidelity. My previous experience as a Mid-Level 3D Artist at Prolific Studio allowed me to interpret concept art and create innovative virtual characters and environments, further honing my skills in rendering and troubleshooting.
