About

I am a Senior 3D Character Artist with more than six years of experience creating high-quality characters for cinematics, advertising, and real-time applications. I specialize in realistic sculpting, clothing creation, grooming, texturing, look development, and rendering, using tools such as ZBrush, Maya, Marvelous Designer, Substance Painter, and Mari.

I enjoy taking characters from early concepts through polished, production-ready assets. I have experience optimizing models for game-ready pipelines and Unreal Engine workflows, collaborating with animators and clients, and mentoring junior artists. I am friendly, detail-oriented, and committed to delivering strong creative work that meets both artistic and technical requirements.
