RESUME
HUGH KHA
3D Print Specialist | Designer and Model Maker | 3D Generalist | Artist
Great to meet you!
My personal ethos are to 'draw wisdom from many places' and 'in every challenge is an opportunity.'
Working with many different industries has taught me to be flexible and versatile with my design process. Design for me is oftentimes as much an art as a science, requiring interdisciplinary and creative solutions to problems. My passion for learning and synthesis of new skills and knowledge has been paramount to success in my career.
I revel in learning new processes and programs. I'll quickly adapt to your workflow or pipeline, and offer my perspective from my experience. Whether it is digital or physical, artistic or industrial. My passion lies in manifesting an idea into form.
Looking forward to work together and build towards something greater than the sum of its parts.
Cheers,
Hugh Kha
