Experienced VFX & CG Supervisor | Beta-Tester, Mentor & Content Creator | 20 Years of Transforming Imagination into Reality As an experienced VFX & CG Supervisor and former 3D Generalist, with over two decades of hands-on experience in the dynamic world of CGI and VFX, I have successfully navigated diverse landscapes, from commercials and advertising to movies, TV series, and animation.

My multidimensional approach has sculpted me into an agile VFX/CG Supervisor with a profound problem-solving acumen. With an astute ability to dissect every facet of production, I craft efficient solutions to expertly lead and supervise diverse artistic teams. What sets me apart is my unwavering passion for staying on the cutting edge of industry innovation. As a dedicated beta tester for pivotal software solutions, I eagerly embrace emerging tools, technologies, and methodologies. My primary focus revolves around sculpting innovative and optimized workflows that seamlessly integrate into pipeline architecture, enhancing VFX work efficiency and elevating the final product quality.
