About
Personal Profile
I’m a 3D Artist with over 20 years of experience crafting high-quality visuals for immersive and interactive experiences. As a freelancer, I’ve collaborated with digital experience agencies like Inphantry and Showroom Experiential on projects for Google, eBay, Puma, and Marvin.
My career began developing NASCAR racing games for PC and PlayStation before transitioning to advanced real-time technology demos for ATI and AMD. I contributed to over 20 cutting-edge 3D demos and showcased at SIGGRAPH, CES, and product launches to highlight the latest GPU advancements.
I specialize in real-time 3D graphics, virtual and augmented reality experiences, and product visualizations. My expertise includes modeling, digital sculpting, texturing, lighting, and raytraced rendering. Recently, I’ve been exploring Unreal Engine’s path tracing and Lumen lighting to push real-time rendering to cinematic quality.
Bringing ideas to life is what drives me—whether it’s conceptualizing designs, modeling detailed characters, rendering product visuals, or developing virtual experiences. I’m passionate about all things 3D.
Got a project in mind? Let’s make it happen—drop me a message!
