A Bit About Me
A film-trained 3D artist with a strong foundation in fine art, anatomy, life drawing, and traditional sculpture, I approach character work with a deep sensitivity to form, realism, and visual storytelling. My focus is on hyper-realistic digital humans, grooming, texturing, and look development, with particular attention to the subtle details of skin, hair, light, and composition that make a character feel believable and emotionally present on screen. I also explore AI-assisted workflows, including ComfyUI, as a tool for visual research, reference development, and supporting creative iteration within VFX production.
