Hi, I'm a technical artist with experience as a compositor, CG generalist, and as of late technical artist in unreal where I have translated a lot of my vfx knowledge into the tools offered by the game engine. I have a great eye rooted in years of studying film and art and working in visual effects combined with strong technical savy cultivated in my free time by programming video games and unique pieces in game engines as well as writing scripts for various software.
