I am experienced FX Artist/TD with a passion for creating stunning visual effects in the film and entertainment industry. With over 14. years of experience, I have developed expertise in a wide range of software programs, including Houdini, Maya, Nuke, and Unreal Engine. My extensive knowledge of Python scripting enables me to streamline workflows and create custom tools for maximum efficiency.

Throughout my career, I have worked on numerous high-profile projects, consistently delivering top-quality effects and simulations. I enjoy collaborating with fellow artists, bringing a unique perspective to every project I work on. My deep understanding of design and composition principles, coupled with my technical proficiency, makes me an invaluable asset to any team.

If you are interested in viewing my showreel, please feel free to contact me directly. I would be more than happy to showcase my work and discuss potential collaborations.
