    I am a Digital Media Designer, Developer, Manager, and Producer who thrives at the intersection of art, culture, science, and technology. Throughout my career, I have focused on emerging media forms, particularly eXtended Reality (XR) and interactive media, bringing together multi-disciplinary expertise to shape the digital landscapes of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. My PhD at Auckland University of Technology (AUT) in New Zealand delved into XR as a transformative medium, exploring embodied interaction design and innovative pedagogical approaches. Complementing this research, I have remained actively involved in crafting engaging educational content, harnessing the potential of interactive media to create rich, immersive learning experiences. Entrepreneurial by nature, I co-founded Mabioca Cinema and CG School at the age of 26, where I combined practical industry knowledge with a visionary approach to creative education. My academic journey has been equally diverse, spanning a B.A. in Filmmaking, an M.A. in Photography, and studies in Electronic Engineering and Computer Science. Over a decade in computer graphics, matchmoving, and visual effects design refined my understanding of colour science, colour management workflows, and colour grading. Yet my curiosity extends well beyond the studio and lecture hall. My passion for photography, videography, cinematography, IoT development, XR technologies, projection-mapping, and 3D interaction design continually fuels my growth and inspires new directions in my work. I embrace these varied interests as vital elements of my professional practice, enabling me to stay ahead of emerging trends and deliver forward-thinking solutions.
