What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can craft immersive game worlds, collaborate cross-functionally, use AI/AR tools, and grow creatively through hands-on production and mentorship.

I am a creative, multidisciplinary game artist specializing in concept art, character design, and immersive environment creation for games.

I combine 2D and 3D skills with animation basics and procedural/AI-assisted workflows to produce digital assets and compelling visual narratives.

I have professional experience collaborating with game designers and developers, including roles creating promotional assets and designing AR/interactive educational content.

I hold advanced game design education and hands-on production experience, and I teach and facilitate workshops to share tools and methods that bring interactive stories to life.
