ABOUT
A consistent theme in my work is my knack for accurately translating 2D concepts into 3D physical and digital assets and environments. My work as a set builder and architectural model maker has trained me to read and create blueprints, design to build, understand engineering, and know about a wide range of materials and manufacturing processes. My background as a fabricator has armed me with skills that have translated well to working as a digital 3D designer, and my experience on sets and in photography has taught me the power of good lighting. I love problem-solving, developing efficiencies in my 3D workflow, and learning new programs and program developments. I am passionate about storytelling, animation, brand identity, product and environment design, and the future of AR.
As a 3D artist, I am well-versed in Blender, Adobe Substance, Adobe Suite, Rhino, AutoCAD, and ZBrush, and also have experience in Maya, Unreal Engine, and Marvelous Designer. I have experience in rapid prototyping and know how to create watertight models for 3D printing and 2D designs for laser cutters and CNCs. I am constantly exploring new AI technologies and photogrammetry to enhance my efficiency as a 3D artist. If there is new 3D modeling software or processes I need to master, I am confident in my ability to learn them swiftly. My varied work experiences have contributed to my skills as an artist and designer and my ability to adapt quickly to new work environments, standards, technologies, and techniques.
Having run my own business, I am well-organized, communicative, and self-motivated. I love collaborating with others and am comfortable assembling and directing a team, organizing spreadsheets, developing pitches, communicating with clients, and outsourcing production when needed. From my experience working on large collaborative productions, I’ve found that I work well with others and am skilled at navigating a myriad of personalities and dynamics. I have an agreeable personality, deeply value the input of others, and use feedback to enhance my work and continually refine myself and my craft.
If you need a versatile and adaptable 3D artist who can design, render, print, or build, I'd love to chat and explore potential collaborations.
Thank you for taking the time to examine my work.
