I recently switched my career from Civil Engineering Design to 3D Scientific Visualization and Motion Design.
I completed a Master's Degree at the University of Utah to gain further technical skill and understanding of computer visualization.
My goal is to utilize code, 3D geometry, animation and various tools together to visualize complex and/or interesting concepts, phenomena and things.
This is the Quantum Photon visualization that was a contentious topic of conversation on Youtube.
This image shows a process I developed for visualizing realistic optical caustics for rendering (using OpenGL), based on physics and vector geometry.
This project is based on this
paper.
By utilizing my physics background with in combination with my study in visualization it allows me to take on challenging visualization tasks.
What I have discovered in my studies is the importance of vector mathematics, matrix manipulation and the power of algorithms and computational methods to express anything visually.
One of the passions that led me to pursue this field and focus is the crucial role that realistic and interesting visualizations have played in my life and in the world of science and entertainment.
I also have been creating animated digital art in the form of short loops and narrative videos.
I utilize code in conjunction with modeling, texturing and compositing to create procedural, scalable, and captivating visual experiences.
I also developed my own beat-mapping and timecoding program in python for integration with animation software (Blender/AfterEffects), allowing for the creation of music-synced visuals.
I have experience in developing VR experiences as shown in this Avalanche rescue simulator demo.
Utilizing Unity and C# to develop game/physics logic, and working iteratively using VR headsets and delivering the final product in coordination with a team at the University of Utah.
