Summary

I have been working in games for over 10 years, mainly in small indie teams, having previously managed other artists as well.
I have worked in all aspects of game production throughout various projects, from Concept Art and Look Dev to meshes, in engine materials and even marketing assets, though my passion is Concept Art.
In the last five years I have worked with fully remote teams spread accross different timezones and launched 3 games, the latest one being Europa in which I was the Concept Artist.
