      As Sinthetik’s resident weaver of worlds and wearables, I am responsible for creating the art and assets for our immersive experiences. Whether it’s painting concept art for futuristic landscapes, 3D modeling exquisite wigs, or animating creepy spiders, I bring them to life in game engines for AR, VR and Web 3D, and video for social media. I work closely with our project’s creative director to establish the right look and feel for each experience in a way that both elevates the intent, and stays true to our client’s brand aesthetics. I am also responsible for optimizing assets to deliver great looking, yet high-performing experiences on multiple platforms. Show less
