Biography

I am a CGI Generalist whose creative journey began with a deep passion for video editing. What started as a curiosity for cutting, shaping, and refining visuals soon evolved into a full-fledged love for 3D art and digital world-building. Over the years, that foundation in editing enriched my sense of timing, composition, and storytelling — skills that naturally transitioned into my work as a CG artist.

Today, I specialize in 3D modeling and texturing, which have become my strongest artistic pillars. Crafting believable assets, intricate details, and visually compelling surfaces is where I feel most at home. Bringing objects, environments, and concepts to life through form and texture is not just a skill — it’s a passion that drives everything I create.

Alongside my production work in bollywood, I am also a mentor, guiding aspiring artists in their own CGI journeys. Sharing knowledge, breaking down complex workflows, and helping others discover their potential has become one of the most fulfilling parts of my career. I believe that art grows when shared, and mentorship allows me to contribute to the next generation of creators.

As a CGI generalist, I continue to explore new techniques, tools, and styles — from photorealistic rendering to stylized visuals and real-time workflows. This page is a reflection of my growth, my inspirations, and the worlds I build one polygon at a time.
