Professional CV

I am a versatile 3D Artist specializing in modeling, texturing, character animation, and scripting. I am detail-oriented and organized, and bring excellent communication skills to the team. With years of experience as an environment artist, animator, and prototyper, I am able to contribute a variety of roles as priorities shift or as the project demands. My strong technical background enables a smooth exchange of ideas and complex concepts with other technical artists and engineers. Intuitive and forward thinking, I am routinely tapped to assist in developing tools, pipelines and features.
