With over 23 years of experience as a VFX artist, I bring deep industry knowledge and a proven track record of delivering high-quality visuals across a wide range of projects. My work spans numerous studios and pipelines, where I've continually refined my skills in modeling, texturing, look development, lighting, and more. Known for being innovative, adaptable, and highly self-motivated, I thrive in fast-paced environments and excel at finding efficient, creative solutions under pressure.

As a software-agnostic artist, I’m comfortable working with tools like Maya, 3DS Max, Renderman, Redshift, Arnold, Vray, Modo, Photoshop, Mari, Mudbox, and many others. Whether it’s hard surface or organic modeling, UVs, or even some rigging, I approach each challenge with flexibility and a commitment to excellence.
