About

My path into VFX wasn't the most traditional one. I came from digital marketing, where I spent my time making motion graphics and visual content for brands — obsessing over whether a frame felt right before it ever went live. I didn't realize it then, but I was already thinking like a compositor. Every project was a lesson in making audiences believe what they were seeing. That instinct eventually pulled me toward where I really wanted to be — inside the actual craft of visual effects. I started learning Nuke, fell deep into the world of rotoscoping, clean plates, and CG integration, and haven't looked back since. These days I work in Nuke, focusing on: CG compositing and integration Building solid, organized node trees that don't make the next artist want to cry I care a lot about the invisible work — the stuff that holds a shot together quietly while everything else gets the glory. I think that's where a compositor's real value lives. I'm currently looking for a junior compositor or trainee role at a VFX studio — somewhere I can bring my eye for visuals, my hunger to learn, and my slightly unhealthy obsession with a clean comp. If you're building a team and value someone who's genuinely passionate about the craft, I'd love to connect. 📩 Reach out directly or drop a connection request — always happy to talk VFX.
