-As you can read on my home page, I'm a low/high poly modeling artist, I have also skills on render, animation, rigging, texturing, dynamics, composition and more. What I like most while I'm working on CG is to create nice environment images and animations, actual searching job.

BIOGRAPHY:

I wasn’t always a resident of Barcelona, Spain. Born and raised in Venezuela in 1978, it is here I spent most of my childhood, going to regular schools and getting good grades despite being deaf. My family moved around a lot, allowing me to call Canada, United States, Germany and recently in spain.
Playing video games since 1983, helped my choice in 1991 to begin studying programming with old DOS programs like Pascal & C, making several mini video games. In 1989 i had first encounters with 3d FX in movies. This fact inspired me very much, so i started to learn 3d studio.
As gamer started to become more influential in my life I started competing in games like Quake. Getting into the competitive side of things, I started managing several major quake 3 tournaments since 2003 to 2005 such as Euro Allstars, c58, sk, Iankoeln, q3duel, and so on.
In 2005 I laid aside my ambitions of progamming for my new point life, 3D. I started studying in digital dreams films, Barcelona. After my Maya master was complete, I started a job about architectural 3D in Barcelona for 2 years, using 3dsmax/Vray and sometimes maya. Actually i am unemployed / free and continuing to practice and learn using Maya, in hopes to find something in a related field.
