I'm a versatile and creative artist with excellent understanding of the 3D pipeline and multi-pass compositing. With strong knowledge of cinematography, post-production, photography and a good eye for colour, I enjoy working in stimulating environments, where it’s possible to learn and exchange views. Having experienced managing a team, I am able to help others to identify problems and suggest different solutions, both technical and artistic.

I always try to improve upon my skills and am enthusiastic about new challenges, which I undertake with confidence and a professional attitude. I love working in a place where everyone can add personal value to the project and there is the opportunity for professional growth.
