About

Hi! I’m Manuela, an awarded 3D artist passionate about bringing creative projects to life through advanced 3D modeling, texturing, rigging, and animation.

With experience across the full 3D animation pipeline, I enjoy working on both stylized and semi-realistic art styles and thrive in collaborative, fast-paced environments. I also love mentoring others and sharing my knowledge to help them grow in their artistic journeys.

When I’m not creating in Blender, Maya or Unreal Engine, I enjoy arts and crafts such as origami and knitting, playing musical instruments, and honing my strategic thinking through chess. I pride myself on my flexibility, communication skills, and dedication to delivering high-quality work on time.
