Co-founder & 3D Artist at R2C Games

I'm a 3D Artist with 3+ years of experience and a degree in Computer Science. I focus on creating game-ready environments and props using Blender, Substance 3D, and Unreal Engine 5. I co-founded R2C Games, where I lead the art and handle level design for Balkan Vice: Callatis. I enjoy learning new things and working with others.
