I’m a CGI artist and 3D generalist with a proven track record in photorealistic product visualization, medical and scientific animation, and high-end advertising. My work blends technical precision with creative storytelling, delivering visuals that are both accurate and emotionally impactful. Skilled in 3ds Max, V-Ray, After Effects, Photoshop, and Zbrush with experience across modeling, lighting, animation, and rendering, I bring a deep understanding of visual realism, but I’m equally at home adapting to more stylized, cinematic looks inspired by projects like Zack D. Films or Art of War. Over the years I’ve collaborated with global brands including Nike, Bulgari, Cadbury’s, Sony, Bacardi, and EA Games, creating premium 3D assets and animations for campaigns and visual storytelling. I take pride in being easy to work with, responsive, reliable, and genuinely invested in each project’s success. I enjoy the challenge of adapting to new styles and collaborating with creative teams to bring ideas to life with care and precision.
