Wian Jacobs

With a strong foundation in computer science and 3D visualization, I possess a unique combination of technical and creative skills. My experience spans multiple industries, including gaming, where I've worked on various projects involving coding, level design, 3D modeling and visualization. Additionally, I've applied my 3D visualization expertise to deliver high-quality models, visualizations, and renderings for construction and architectural projects.

My expertise includes 3D modeling, texturing and animation, visualization and rendering, proficiency in Unity and Unreal Engine, and strong understanding of spatial data and 3D scanning. With over six years of experience in 3D visualization, I am confident in my ability to provide exceptional services to construction companies, architects, and developers.
