Summary
Greetings! My name is Sadé. Hailing from the Caribbean islands of Trinidad and Tobago, my professional background has been in the creative field---mainly specializing in digital media and in the past, I've worked in industries ranging from graphic design and illustration to 2D animation and film.
This has more or less been my key area of expertise for the past 8 years and I also do it in my personal work because it's my passion. It's what I love to do.
Now my creative endeavors has brought me to the 3D industry where, as a 3D modelling artist, I aspire to forge a full-time career for myself working in either games and/or animation creating stylized props and environments.
As a creative individual, I am always eager to work hard and dive into new artistic experiences that will create opportunities for me to expand my skill set and further improve my quality of work.
Currently I am seeking freelance/or and full-time remote job opportunities in environments that encourage creativity and opportunities for growth. For more examples of my work, you can find them here:
