I'm a technical artist specializing in procedural workflows and pipelines for the 3D film and gaming industries. I've got experience with Python and VEX for creating tools in Maya, Houdini, and Unreal Engine.

Projects
Procedural trees
Procedural tree tool capable of creating trees for film and games running in Unreal Engine. Designed for layout artists and environment artists, controls are intuitive and quick to use.
Procedural bridge
Procedurally modelled bridge based on the Millau Viaduct in France. Adjustable path, height, cables and support structures.
Light profile library tool
Maya script to visually browse and apply IES light profiles to compatible lights for rendering with Arnold or Redshift.
Texture blending tool
Unreal Engine script to speed up the workflow of applying runtime virtual textures to a landscape material and static mesh actors to blend them into their environment.
About
I love video games, animation, and have a passion for tackling technical challenges. I thrive on transforming ideas into stunning visuals and enjoy every step of the process. I specialise in building procedural and pipeline tools to help artist work more quickly with less frustration. I'm at my best when I'm learning something new and applying that to my work, I just wrapped up the Technical Arts program at BCIT and I’m looking for my next steps in the industry!
Outside of work I love to run, draw, listen to and make music! Some current favourites are Jasmine Myra, Floating Points, Four Tet, and Fred Again...
