About me

I am an experienced management professional who, after a successful 15-year career in the hospitality industry, has managed to pivot into the VFX and games development industry full-time. With a passion for gaming, particularly MMO-based and fantasy games, I have pursued my interests in art, drawing and technology.
I have flourished under the guidance of the VFX Lead at The Virtulab, a growing VR, animation, and game development studio. I am currently enrolled at CG Spectrum where I have had the opportunity to study 3D Modelling and work with some of the best names in the industry. These include Anna Beganskaya (Heroes of the Storm/ League of Legends) and John Olofinsky (Finch/ What if...) to hone my skills in 3D modelling. Having successfully completed a full foundational certificate for 3D Modelling with CG Spectrum, I will be enrolling for the Advanced course with expected completion in Jan 2024 with a full diploma. I aim to pursue 3D Modelling and other digital development capabilities as a career moving forward.

This has all been completed whilst in the full-time role of Quality Assurance & Support Manager at The Virtulab, where my previous experience of working across several industries in managerial roles has granted me key transferrable skills into the digital development sector through team leadership, project management, operations, and resource management.
