Environments
Vatom House - Digital Twin
453k Triangles - 28.7 MB
Created a replica of Vatom's headquarters to prototype and test concepts such as the “Meta-Window” and to further explore the blending of digital and physical realities.
I worked as the sole 3D artist on the project, using Blender to create and optimize the environment for real-time performance within Vatom’s Three.js-based metaverse.
The design focused on accurate replication, asset efficiency, and cross-device performance. The build ran consistently at 60fps across all major web-supported devices (Windows, macOS, Android, and iOS).
Deloitte - Digital Twin
211k Triangles - 8.06 MB
Using nothing but a 360° photo tour, I replicated this Deloitte office from scratch in Blender—every corner, chair, curtain, and curve modeled and optimized for real-time use in web, VR, and mobile through Vatom's metaverse. No scans. Just reference and intuition.
Space Theater
60k Triangles - 14.6 MB
Solely created the 'Space Theater' as a template for Vatom's metaverse; to provide a futuristic, spacious, and performant presentation stage and theater room.
Low-poly and simple to emphasize that high-fidelity does not need to impact performance (consistent 60fps across all major web-supported devices, including mobile), especially at high user capacity, showcasing the high-quality normal maps to create intricate detail within the low-poly design.
Vatom's Web3-based metaverse did not have reflection mapping, so I initially used a large sphere with the background HDRI mapped onto it, and rendered my own HDRI of the interior to fake reflections and created a dynamic ambience.
Nova's Metaverse
54k Triangles - 14.9 MB
This was a workflow concept I developed for a Metaverse environment. I described the platform in vivid detail to OpenAI’s ChatGPT-4o, incorporating observed use-cases and user behavioral patterns to inform the design. From that foundation, I asked it to help conceptualize a space that could accommodate as many of these users and scenarios as possible. I then asked GPT to translate the concept into a Midjourney prompt and began building.
Although the project was indefinitely postponed due to shifting client priorities, I rendered it here as I remember it—the magnificent ruin of what could have been.
Ethereal Meeting Space
240k Triangles - 50.5 MB
I created the 'Ethereal Meeting Space' based off AI-generated concept art provided to me by the Experience Architect at Vatom. Designed as a high-fidelity showcase using Blender as well as Shapelabs VR (for sculpting), for Vatom's metaverse.
I had a vision for this metaverse environment to feel more alive and dynamic than previously possible through Vatom's platform, so I coded a plugin to add powerful animation control within the metaverse. Creating the capacity for user-synchronized, persistent NLA track control so the spaces could evolve and change via user interactions, proximity, or multi-proximity triggers (requiring more than a single user to activate; for fostering teamwork and engagement).

Feature Props
PepsiCo - Frito Lays - FIFA
Co-created the ‘Selfie Token’ that initiated the global Web3 campaign “Pass the Ball Challenge”, for FIFA World Cup 2022. Created and assisted design for all demo and finalized assets throughout the project, and collaborated across internal and client teams to polish visuals.→ Used globally as part of one of the largest Web3 campaigns to date
→ The embossed versions were manually created as a showcase for Pepsi executives during the early stages of the project

Created for Space Capital's second metaverse event with Vatom Spaces. Designed multiple proof of participation (POP) design options; although for reusability, the simplest was chosen.Also created the Space Capital Key to distribute to VIPs for bypassing a restricted, token-gated section of the metaverse; an area which could only be accessed if a user had the designated NFT in their Vatom Wallet.
Freebird
Commissioned coin for Freebird. Created from a simple 2D design they provided, however, I never stop at the simplest option; I textured this optimized, high-fidelity version to showcase that detail doesn't need to come at the cost of performance.

Created as a high-fidelity showcase to present to Charlotte Tilbury herself, to demonstrate the possibilities and capabilities of AR tokens.
New York Fashion Week - Vivienne Tam
Converted and optimized for WebGL to display and distribute to the metaverse attendees for Vivienne Tam's 2023 New York Fashion Week show.→ Original model was 1,992,260 polygons and 327 MB; I losslessly reduced to 38,105 polygons and 1.2 MB (with both decimation tools and manual retopology)

Created as a demo asset for Ryder Cup 2025 for a digital campaign hosted through Vatom. I was provided their latest shield design and turned it into an optimized, low-poly 3D token.
Pattons Veterans Project
Created for Pattons Veterans Project film festival as a proof of attendance token to tie into a digital campaign and rewards program hosted through Vatom.

Composited Renders
Composited render of a personal version of the “Pass The Ball” selfie tokenBased on the custom, embossed tokens I designed for Pepsi executives, this version features my own face and was created independently as a creative exploration.
Designed as a cinematic photorealism study, with a focus on lighting, material detail, and mood.
Composited render of a derelict cabinThis is from a personal passion project where I wrote a short film in which I aim to complete all of the design, modeling, motion capture, sound design and compositing. I designed all the procedural materials from scratch to guarantee my exact vision is realised.
Aiming for realism with refining my own styling.
Composited render of a custom access key designed for Space Capital’s token-gated VIP and presenter loungeWhile the base model was simple, I created a holographic logo to match their branding and the aesthetic of their Metaverse event. That design inspired this full scene, independently developed to reflect the tone and polish of the design.
Styled with a cinematic sci-fi composition, drawing inspiration from the visual language of J.J. Abrams.
