Personal Profile

Hi my name is Josh, I'm a level designer for Unity for 7 years and Unreal for 2 years. I have extensive knowledge with unreal landscape tools, foliage tool, blueprints and material editor, loads on optimization (making your levels run smoothly), lightmapping, rendering, and so much more. I'm an extremely dedicated worker, friendly, and willing to work until the job is done. Loyalty and hardwork defines me as a person and I assure anyone that works with me, that you will not regret getting me on your team. To make it clear, I'm only a level designer that designs levels with given assets. I'm learning to do 3D modeling/environmental artist. Have small knowledge on C# code (Basic code)
