About me

A Maya 3D Generalist and Art Director with 8 years of industry experience. I have worked with several production companies in Milan. Along with the use of Maya I have expertise with Zbrush, Photoshop and After Effect. I am highly skilled at working with clients to satisfy their needs and am able to adapt my skills to the needs of the company and the specific work to be produced. I particularly enjoy end-to-end project management and take pride in delivering high quality projects.
