​Hello!

I am a Digital Artist known by the moniquer Tank Thunderbird. I am currently living in Berlin and I specialise in spatial 3D design and animation, whether in games, apps, advertisement or interactive installations.

For the past 5 years I've mainly worked with the Unity engine,  and over a decade with the complete Adobe Creative Suite and various 3D applications like Blender, Cinema 4D and 3D Studio Max. I am familiar with shaders, scripting in Python and C#, as well as being able to work with all sorts of hardware, including AR/VR devices and microcontrollers like the Arduino on "phygital" installations.

I've worked as a Creative Technical Lead for UX Design projects and as a Technical Artist for Interactive Art and Wearable Tech projects. I recently worked as a Unity Motion Designer at and XR company called Shoutrlabs and at a hypercasual games company, Popcore where I contributed ideas and skills in the production of creative ads for several games. I also worked with the developers and the motion team to develop tools and efficient production pipelines and documentation.

I love Art, Design and Technology and have degrees in Fine Arts from the Universidad de los Andes in Bogota and a Masters in Art and Information Technology from Chalmers University of Technology.
