- Experience with Unity and in‑house engines.
- Game‑ready 3D modeling (organic and architectural), materials, set dressing, VFX, basic animation/skinning
and performance profiling.
- Technical production: Planning and estimating tasks/projects, setting up pipelines and documentation (such as art bibles), outsourcing coordination, and conducting interviews.

I’ve worked in a variety of studio sizes and arrangements (in‑house, freelance, remote) across Sweden. Based in Malmö. Open to roles in Europe, Türkiye, or remote.
