About

Over the course of my career, I’ve had the privilege of working on a variety of impactful projects in the 3D design and business management space. One of my key accomplishments was leading the development of photorealistic product renders for a high-profile electronics client, which significantly boosted their marketing and sales efforts. This project required not only creative 3D modeling skills but also the ability to manage cross-functional teams and tight deadlines, ensuring both quality and efficiency.

Another achievement I’m proud of was contributing to interactive AR experiences for a product launch, using tools like Unreal Engine to create immersive experiences for customers. This project demonstrated my ability to merge creativity with cutting-edge technology.

In addition to my technical contributions, I’ve managed teams and guided projects from concept to completion, applying my business acumen to optimize workflows, enhance client satisfaction, and drive successful outcomes. These experiences have strengthened my leadership and problem-solving skills.
