3D Environment Designer & Aspiring Technical Artist Looking to push the boundaries of real-time experiences
I am a 3D environment designer for games with a passion for procedural tools, scripting, and the mathematical beauty found in nature. I blend traditional art with cutting-edge software to create immersive digital worlds.
With a background in product design, almost everything you see here is conceptualized, designed and brought to life by me.

Architectural Environments
Designing immersive architectural spaces for interactive experiences
Project Concept
This project focuses on creating believable architectural environments that tell stories through environmental design. Each space is carefully crafted to guide player behavior and emotional response while maintaining architectural authenticity.
Design Process
Extensive research into architectural styles and historical periods
Concept development through sketching and mood boarding
3D blockout and spatial flow testing
Detailed modeling and texturing pipeline
Lighting design and atmospheric enhancement
Performance optimization and technical polish
Technical Challenges
Creating architecturally accurate environments while maintaining game performance presented unique challenges:
Balancing historical accuracy with gameplay requirements
Optimizing complex geometry for real-time rendering
Creating modular systems for efficient level construction
Implementing dynamic lighting for various time-of-day scenarios
Tools & Techniques
Maya for detailed architectural modeling
Substance Suite for realistic material creation
Unreal Engine for lighting and final presentation
Photogrammetry for reference material capture
Custom MEL scripts for repetitive modeling tasks
