About

Hi, I’m San, a Montreal-based 3D Character Artist for video games. I’m currently working at Eidos Montreal on an unannounced project. I specialize in creating realistic characters and outfits but I also have a strong interest in stylized characters.

After 10 years in marketing/communication in the video game industry I decided to change career and went back to school to pursue my passion for 3D.

I’ve had the opportunity to contribute to a range of projects, including Rainbow Six and Fable.
