I´m a 36 years old 3d artist and started studying and working with CG back in 1995 while I was studying architecture at UFMG, Brazil. By 1995 I started using Adobe Photoshop and Autodessys FormZ. In 1996 I was bitten by the 3dsmax bug which was in its first version. Since then, I use the combination of 3dsmax/Photoshop/Tons of plugins for all my architectural illustrations and animations. I have a passion for CGI, cinema, real books, drawing and photography. My motto is "Saúde e Sucesso!" = "Health and Success!"

I'm an architectural designer in the Detroit area. I'll be entering the real-time category, using Lumion 3d.
I was raised on a classic healthy combination of science, music, arts and true love. Over the years, this path lead me to graduate the experimental IASA - Israel Art and Science Academy, and go on to study Architecture at the Technion - Israel Technical Institute, where I first got the chance to try computer aided design applications and got addicted. Shortly after, I started working as a 3D Artist in the Israeli visual industry, and dedicated most of my school work to digital media and computerized 3D solutions. It was therefore obvious when I chose to do my final project in the evolving field of Digital Architecture.
