I bridge the gap between creativity and technology — building the rigs, tools, and systems that let animation flow.

Maya Virus Cleaner

Automated tool that detects and removes a rig-breaking virus from Maya scene files — protecting entire productions from silent corruption.

200+ Files scanned
3 Projects saved

When a virus started corrupting Maya rigs across class projects, I built this tool from scratch. It scanned and cleaned over 200 files automatically — recovering my project and those of two classmates before the damage spread further.
