As a self-employed professional, I specialize in 3D animation, motion graphics, and visual effects for film, music videos, and commercials. I bring creative concepts to life with expertise in modeling, lighting, compositing, and post production, delivering high-quality visuals that captivate audiences.

During my 12-year tenure at the National Polytechnic University of Armenia, I had the privilege of guiding approximately 300 students in Animation Film Drafting and Creating. As a Senior Lecturer, I delivered engaging lectures and provided hands-on learning experiences using industry-standard software like Autodesk 3Ds MAX, Autodesk Maya, and Adobe Creative Suite. I actively mentored students, encouraging them to pursue internships and industry placements to gain real-world experience. Additionally, I played a key role in curriculum development, ensuring alignment with industry standards. My time at the university was marked by a dedication to excellence in education and a passion for empowering the next generation of animation and VFX professionals.

During my 17-year tenure at TouchFX Animation Studio, I grew from a Character and Environment Modeller to roles like Compositing Artist, Lighting and Rendering Artist, and eventually Project Manager, Render Supervisor, and Post Production Supervisor. I played a key role in creating five full feature 3D animation films, utilizing various software to craft animations, lighting, rendering, and visual effects. Additionally, I worked on two other projects before leaving. As I progressed, I became a leader in the studio, overseeing projects and mentoring junior artists. My journey was marked by continuous learning, creativity, and a passion for delivering top-notch animation content. This experience has shaped me into a versatile and adaptable professional, capable of thriving in dynamic and challenging environments. I am excited to continue leveraging my skills and expertise to drive innovation and excellence in the animation industry.
