About Me

Hi! I am a 3D generalist artist. I can model, texture, rig, and animate characters, props and environment. I can create python scripts in Maya to help me with the repetitive tasks and to make my workflow efficient. In my free time, I do 2D animation for my own YouTube channel which is my passion project. I use mainly Maya and Adobe Software Suites but I am willing to learn any software or pipeline you throw at me.

3D Works

Guardians of the Galaxy: Black Vortex pt. 2

I worked on this TV episode for Marvel, "Guardians of the Galaxy Black Vortex part 2". I was heavily involved in this project as a modeller, animator, lighting artist, and rigger.
I modelled and rigged Rocket Raccoon, I also animated shots in this episode and I did lighting after all the animation was approved.
