Summary

A creatively and technically driven 3D and VFX Artist with six years of professional experience and over a decade of learning. I have worked across many platforms and contributed to indie feature films, short films, B2B videos, educational videos and web series. Some of my works have debuted and displayed in Leicester Square cinemas, and Times Square adspace.

I have a proven ability to turn complex ideas into compelling visual designs, combining cinematic thinking with practical execution. My works incorporate advanced PBR and procedural textures, as well as sub-millimeter precision modelling, with experience on vehicles, terrain, and architecture. I am now focused on applying my skills to create memorable works and support innovative design
