Summary

As a game developer, I bring characters to life with passion and creativity. I thrive on the challenge of pushing the boundaries of imagination and technology to create visually stunning game assets that will captivate players.
My years of experience as a 3D artist and lead artist, have helped me develop my skills in sculpting, texturing, shader setup, rigging, and designing environments, props, and concepts. I am always learning and growing in the digital arts, including illustration, 3D printing, and model making.
Being a self-motivated and disciplined artist, I consistently deliver projects on time and work seamlessly with teams to make a real difference for game players.
