I'm an environment artist specializing in procedural materials and world-building for games. My curiosity drives me to bring concepts to life by creating immersive environments across various art styles. I thrive in collaborative settings, adapting to different artistic visions and technical constraints. Outside of game development, I enjoy jewelry making, painting, and night sky photography!
