About
I’m a Senior 3D Environment Artist specializing in lighting and look development, and I’ve been building high-quality real-time and cinematic visuals for over 10 years. My work focuses on world building, modular asset creation, and creating the right mood through advanced shading and lighting—whether I’m delivering hero moments or supporting background work.
I’m comfortable bridging art and technical production by owning pipelines end-to-end, collaborating with art direction and multi-discipline teams, and troubleshooting scene and performance challenges to ship AAA content. I’ve worked across games, feature animation, and architectural visualization—using industry tools like Unreal Engine, Houdini (Solaris/Karma), Blender, ZBrush, and Substance Painter, while keeping projects aligned with creative milestones and production schedules.
