What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can create 3D/VFX assets and animations for games, film, or interactive media, collaborate cross-functionally, and grow in a creative, production-driven environment.

I am a 3D and VFX artist with a degree in Communication Sciences and ongoing master's studies in VFX, 3D modeling and video game development. I create textured, animated 3D assets and work across pipelines using Autodesk Maya, Cinema 4D, ZBrush, Substance Painter, Unity (C#), and the Adobe suite to deliver polished visual storytelling.

I have experience in stop-motion, 2D animation, editorial and audiovisual production, and freelance projects for commercials and short-form content. I am bilingual in Spanish and English, organized in project delivery, and committed to producing interactive and creative solutions for emerging platforms.
