About Me
I am a VFX Artist, specialized in FX, having a background in mechanical / calculational engineering. After a few years working as a mechanical engineer i decided to pivot my focus entirely on VFX to combine technical skills in a more creative way and to produce compelling images and animations. My VFX journey started with different DCC packages like Maya (modeling, animation, etc...) to get a broad knowledge about different disciplines before I fully switched over to FX, where Houdini is now my main working environment for almost every kind of task. I love creating beautiful images, doing R&D and working with nice team mates.
Have a great day!
