Available to hire
Hi, I am a game developer and 3D artist. I have experience in both games and film, focused mainly on pipelines, characters, and core system development. Much of my experience is mostly in Maya, Photoshop, Unreal, and Zbrush, but I have some knowledge about many other programs and software. The last thing to know is that I love to learn and expand my knowledge base.
