I build production-ready environments in Unreal Engine 5 for games, cinematics, and VR training applications. My work focuses on real-time performance, lighting quality, and clean scene organization so developers can immediately integrate the level into their project. I work as a real-time environment and level designer specializing in Unreal Engine 5 world building, cinematic environments, and VR-ready scenes. I do not only create visuals — I build levels that function inside a production pipeline. My scenes are organized, optimized, and structured so teams can continue development without re-building the map. What I can deliver • Full environment assembly from existing asset libraries • Modular level design and world composition • Cinematic environment setup (Sequencer-ready) • Lighting and mood creation using Lumen • Optimization and performance pass • VR-ready scene preparation • Camera paths for trailers or in-engine cinematics Technical workflow • Unreal Engine 5 (Lumen / Nanite) • Level streaming & map organization • Collision setup & navigation • LOD and performance optimization • Cine Camera Actor & Sequencer setup • Post-process volume & exposure control Typical use cases • Game levels • VR industrial training simulations • Virtual production sets • MetaHuman cinematics • Trailer environments I am comfortable collaborating with programmers, technical artists, and designers and following existing project structures and naming conventions.

I'm a Level Designer with 3 years of professional experience creating gameplay spaces, routes, and worlds in Unreal Engine, Unity, and UEFN. At My Whoosh, I designed and implemented large-scale cycling worlds and routes, including Arabia, AlUla, Colombia, Belgium, and MyWhoosh World. I also contributed to one of the key routes used in the UCI eSports World Championship, working closely with artists, programmers, and designers to create engaging player experiences. Beyond professional work, I've collaborated with creators on multiple UEFN projects and continue to develop my own games in Unity. My current project is a 2.5D platformer inspired by classic games like Bounce, where I'm responsible for everything from level design and gameplay systems to tools development. To improve my workflow, I even built a custom 3D tilemap editor for rapid level creation and iteration. My strengths include: Level layout and player flow Environmental storytelling Exploration and progression design Open-world and route design Gameplay blockouts and greyboxing Unreal Engine 4/5 UEFN (Unreal Editor for Fortnite) Unity Rapid prototyping and iteration Level design documentation and pipelines I enjoy creating levels that guide players naturally through space while encouraging exploration, discovery, and meaningful decision-making. My design approach is heavily influenced by atmosphere, lighting, pacing, and the relationship between environment and gameplay.

At A Glance: Level Designers

When making or developing a video game, you need to rely on many different talents and skills: storytelling, graphic design, user interfacing, voice acting, scripting, and programming to name a few. In modern video games where entire digital 3D worlds are created alongside epic stories that drive character action and motivation, it has become increasingly important to diligently and precisely design a game in which each segment presents the player with the exact resources they need to enjoy the entire experience in a fulfilling way. These segments are called levels and are a far cry from the different mazes and asteroid sizes that existed in the early days of the video game industry. A dedicated level designer is the most effective way to ensure that your game unfolds in the challenging and rewarding way you need it to.

A level designer is a highly skilled video game professional with experience working on a wide variety of projects and implementing a host of software tools. An expert level designer works with the game mechanics and digital world to provide the player with cohesive visual aspects and game resources that subtly guide them towards the experience that has been laid out for them. Of course, a level designer does not have to work with massive 3D games but can leverage experience to design puzzles or platforms that increase in difficulty at a palatable pace for the user. Hiring a freelance level designer is a cost-effective way to make sure that the best possible version of your video game is presented.
