My name is Esteban Tovagliari and I'm a freelance software developer.
My area of expertise is VFX and computer graphics. I have 15+ years of experience working in visual effects as a compositor and as a developer.

My personal interests include generic programming and software reuse in C++, physically based rendering, image processing and computer vision.

When I'm not writing software I enjoy reading, playing old video games and travelling.
