Teacher expertise and credentials
My art career began at Manhattan Youth, where I worked as a Comic Book Art Teacher. Now, as a Multimedia Lab Technician at Borough of Manhattan Community College (BMCC), I guide students through the process of conceptualizing and showcasing their projects, blending technical expertise with mentorship in CGI production for games and film.

As a freelance 3D artist with over six years of experience, I’ve had the privilege of working on short films, interactive game design projects, and other creative multimedia endeavors.
I’ve always believed in the power of storytelling—whether through visually stunning animations or immersive 3D environments—and I’m passionate about helping others express their creativity through the intersection of art and technology.

If you’re interested in becoming a 3D artist professionally or simply want to create your own short films, I’m here to guide you on your journey in Unreal Engine alongside the talented team at Animation Atelier.

Whether you’re here to create, explore, or learn, I’m happy to be part of your CGI journey!
