Greetings, I hold a Ph.D. and I am a seasoned patent analyst, 3D modeler, inventor and product designer in New York. I have provided technical writing and illustrations for over 100 patents for 'pro se' inventors who represent themselves to the patent office. I hold a paralegal certificate and I often work under the supervision of attorneys, collaborate with engineers and innovators. I can go from design work to reverse engineering (using scanners), to prototype printing (8k resolution, resin and filament 3D printers), to fabrication drawings. I have also drafted user manuals and technical documentation and perform artificial intelligence prompt engineering. I am also a scientific author and illustrator specializing in technical writing, medical illustrations, statistics, grant writing, CAD drawings, proof-of-concept designs, as well as parametric mechanical designs. I utilize subscriptions for both AutoCADLT and Fusion360 routinely. I only accept a limited number of projects at a time so that I can maintain the quality and quick turnaround my clients have come to expect. Please know that I am NOT an attorney OR a registered patent agent, and I do NOT dispense legal advice or represent ANYONE to the USPTO - I only write technical content for those who chose to file themselves and my work is educational in nature. Thank you.

Hello, my name is Denys. I am a freelance Graphic Designer, 3D Generalist, and Photographer with over 14 years of experience. I specialize in creating high-quality visuals that help products and brands stand out in competitive markets. Along with design and 3D work, I have extensive experience in product photography and commercial photography. I have produced thousands of product photos for retail and e-commerce, including Amazon listings, catalogs, and advertising campaigns. I work with professional lighting setups and understand how to present different materials—such as glass, metals, reflective surfaces, liquids, and textiles—so that the product looks attractive and accurate. I can also create lifestyle images, creative compositions, and short product videos when needed. Whether you need a new Amazon listing design, product photography, branding design, or 3D models for your products, I have the skills and expertise to deliver strong results. I use modern tools and workflows to create visuals that clearly communicate the value of your product and help increase conversions. My goal is to build long-term partnerships with companies by providing reliable communication, consistent quality, and on-time delivery. I understand how important clear communication and efficient workflow are for business projects, and I always keep clients updated during the process. If you are looking for an experienced designer and photographer who understands both the visual and commercial side of product presentation, I would be happy to help. I look forward to discussing your project. Regards, Denys

With a strong foundation in modeling, rigging, and animation, along with advanced proficiency in Autodesk Maya and ZBrush, I bring both technical precision and creative problem-solving to every stage of the production pipeline. My experience includes high-resolution sculpting in ZBrush, efficient topology creation and UV layout in Maya, and building clean, animator-friendly rigs for characters and props. I am comfortable taking assets from concept through final animation, ensuring they meet both artistic and technical requirements. Whether developing stylized characters or realistic environments, I prioritize form, function, and production efficiency. In addition to modeling and rigging, I have experience producing polished animations with strong timing, weight, and performance. I understand the importance of clean scene organization, naming conventions, and optimization for game engines or rendering pipelines. I thrive in collaborative environments and communicate effectively with designers, animators, and technical teams to ensure cohesive results.
