Summary
Technical Material Artist with a 3D art background since 2015 and a focus on game production since 2022. I build high-end materials and environment assets, and I write the tools that make those pipelines faster: Blender add-ons, Unreal Engine 5 plugins, HLSL shaders and Substance Painter/Designer tooling. A Top-10 seller on the ArtStation Marketplace for several consecutive years, and a mentor to over 2,000 students. Self-taught, optimization-minded, and comfortable owning a workflow from first texture to in-engine result.
