About Me
I began my professional journey in 2016 and have since worked on a number of solo and collaborative projects. I take pride in all that I do and in the long-term relationships I’ve fostered in the process. I firmly believe that hard work eventually pays off, and I know that each day brings me closer to reaching my goals.
I have worked on titles such as Medievil remake, The Last of Us 2, Draugen, and others more
under NDA have been in the core team for Medievil doing characters and props and spent a
long time doing hard surface and organic props in Draugen, The Last of Us 2, and other
projects. I am easy to go with and always open to knowledge.
