About
Who … ? Me?
I'm Nafi and I am always on the lookout for exciting and challenging projects to take part in. I am extremely passionate about what I do and work hard to reflect that in the projects I get involved with.
I have over 6 years professional modelling experience across Animation and VFX . I am currently based in Vancouver, Canada for the foreseeable future and was based in London before this.
I am also an Arts University Bournemouth graduate with a First Class Degree in Animation Production.
Outside of my work I mentor aspiring modelers, am an avid reader, gamer and movie buff. I also love to travel.
