Samuel Hoyal

Created architectural visualizations for large, highly detailed projects working with architects and interior designers from early design options through approval and construction. Converted Revit/AutoCAD/SketchUp models into 3ds Max, cleaned or rebuilt geometry, created materials and textures, and added custom interior details such as carvings and architectural elements. Produced multiple design options for the same space and updated imagery as designs changed. Also created confidential interior images used as construction visual targets. Contributed to meeting an accelerated six-week redesign schedule by collaborating within a ~10-person visualization team.

Led and built a nine-artist team for Zygote’s Generation 2 anatomy collection, including teaching 3D fundamentals and supporting Zygote’s specialized anatomy workflow. Established production workflows and quality standards, reviewed and refined artist work, and provided hands-on support. Directed the visual approach for comprehensive male and female anatomy datasets built from medical scans and photographic reference across multiple demographics, producing distinct models and texture sets. Delivered the first complete male and female Generation 2 datasets on an 18-month targeted schedule, and helped expand into pediatric, morphable, pregnancy, and infant anatomy.

Led sales for Zygote, generating approximately $1.5M in annual sales through anatomy licensing and custom medical visualization projects. Managed the full sales cycle from inquiry to demonstrations, proposals, follow-up, negotiation, and close. Scoped custom projects with production, estimated hours and staffing, set pricing, and adapted involvement as scope or pricing changed. Implemented CRM-based lead and opportunity tracking to improve consistency. Delivered technical product demonstrations and represented Zygote at trade shows, working with organizations including Allergan, Stryker, Medtronic, Johnson & Johnson, and Cleveland Clinic.
