What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative environment that fosters creativity and innovation, with opportunities for professional growth.

As a passionate 3D Artist and Real-Time Visualization Specialist, I thrive on transforming complex ideas into stunning visual experiences. Currently, I work at Edag Group, where I have designed and deployed real-time 3D visualization pipelines for automotive design using Unreal Engine 5. My efforts have led to a remarkable 40% reduction in render times while maintaining photorealistic quality. I take pride in my ability to integrate various software tools, ensuring asset accuracy and optimizing workflows for maximum efficiency.

Throughout my career, I have delivered over 15 high-fidelity demos and pioneered AI-driven animation tools that significantly cut setup times. My freelance experience has further honed my skills, allowing me to create photorealistic 3D assets for AR/VR projects and streamline client workflows. I am dedicated to continuous learning and collaboration, having trained numerous interns and contributed to successful design competitions. My goal is to leverage my expertise in real-time engines and 3D modeling to create impactful visual narratives.
