Summary

I am a CGI generalist with 3 years practical experience in the entire Visual Effects Workflow.

I have a background in Electrical Engineering and therefore find a lot of enjoyment in procedural texturing and modelling (in Blender Geometry Nodes).
My background also makes me a good problem solver and I never shy away from a challenge, regardless of my skill level or the short time I've been doing this.

In an attempt to improve the quality of my 3D work, I learned compositing in Blackmagic Fusion and video editing in DaVinci Resolve.

I am an extremely fast learner that takes initiative to always be improving my skills and pushing the boundaries of what I can do. I am a big proponent of teamwork too and fulfilling individual areas of the pipeline efficiently and to a high degree of quality.
