Summary

I am a 3D Character Artist seeking job opportunities or freelance gigs with large studios. I love taking on challenging projects and thrive in collaborative environments, where I can contribute creatively and enhancing the team dynamic.
When it comes to gaming, my favorite are shooters such as Valorant and Marvel Rivals. The half hand painted and PBR art styles of those games and other's such as Wayfinder, Arcane, League of Legends have greatly inspired my work.
