My first years as a renderer remind me of my first day at the gym. I walked in full of hope, but ten minutes on the treadmill left me exhausted and questioning everything.
​
3D rendering, like building muscles, takes daily commitment. It’s tough at the beginning, but with consistency, it becomes second nature. For the record, I still struggle at the gym. But when it comes to rendering? That’s a different story.
​
Fast forward 15 years, and I’m the proud co-founder of HighQ Renders LLC, an award-winning creative company based in San Francisco, with offices in Greece.
In 2023 and 2024, I was honored to be included in the Fortune Greece 40 Under 40 list. HighQ Renders earned a spot among the 100 Fastest Growing Companies in San Francisco and the Top 100 Women-Owned Businesses in San Francisco for 2024.
​
Our portfolio features some of the world’s most iconic projects, including the Marriott Hotels & Resorts in New York, the Hilton Hotels in New York, the Ritz-Carlton Luxury Residences in Miami, and the Hyatt in New York. We’ve also collaborated with celebrity interior designers like Kari Whitman and Fox Nahem, whose clients include President Barack Obama and stars like Jessica Alba, Melanie Griffith, and Robert Downey Jr.
​
I’ve published several design books on 2D and 3D graphic design, many of which are used in university courses, helping shape the next generation of 3D modelers in my native Greece.
​
My passion for teaching matches my enthusiasm for creating photorealistic renders. Through my YouTube channel, I share my knowledge, tips, and insights with aspiring designers.
​
If you’re just starting your journey, my goal is to guide you. From workflows and rendering settings to client relationships and scaling your business, I’ll share everything I’ve learned—from being a one-person operation to leading a 15-member team that’s constantly growing.
​
Let’s create something extraordinary, together.

Yours,
M.
