about me

Being a 3D generalist, working in the field of advertisement for over 12 years, I seeked a 
new challenge in 2017 and evolved into a realtime artist at Infected, bringing in not only my 
experience in shading and lookdev, my passion for details and the creation of appealing 
images, but also my long time experience within the commercial industry. 
Meeting deadlines and finding smart solutions have always been a part of my professional career 
as well as being an adaptable team player and integrating into various pipelines.
I have a passion for design and a well trained eye for realistic CG, composition, light and color. I'm always eager to have the opportunity to work on projects, which force my self to come up with 
new creative solutions.
I'm available for freelance work on site or remote.
