I like exploring new tools and find new ways to make my pipeline more efficient, and easier to use for me and my team. I have worked with programmers, animators, artists, sound designers, level designers and game designers in a variety of projects to create fun experiences for people.
In my free time I enjoy dancing, figure skating and playing instruments and games. I love animals and nature.
Hello!
My name is Gabi and I'm a passionate 3D artist. I enjoy learning about the world around me and finding ways to replicate it. Currently I've been working as a 3D generalist, focusing on creating props, textures and materials to build scenes for game levels.
