ABOUT

Nature and emptiness inspire my work. It's an exploration of impermanence, organic movement, and photo-surrealism. I take an experimental approach to capture the essence of an idea, not being too afraid to "break" things and surprise myself.


How we design our environment shapes our experience, our story, and ultimately our identity. Identity is the biggest driver of human behavior. Therefore, it is my belief that through art and design we can humbly divert resources towards solving some of humanity's biggest problems.

TOOLS

My primary 3D toolkit is Houdini + Redshift/Octane + Nuke.

However I am always tinkering with any other tools I find interesting, such as Substance Painter, Touch Designer, Zbrush, Plasticity, Resolve, and more.

PAST PROJECTS

Aerosmith, Casamigos, Coinbase, Deloitte, Dolly Parton, The Eagles, Filson, The Game Awards, Riot Games, LVCIDIA, Mercedes Benz, ODESZA, Phase One, Spotify, Tears for Fears, and more.
