As an educator with a background in digital animation and multimedia, I am passionate about exploring and leveraging technology as an innovative tool to foster creativity in art education. Having grown up alongside the evolution of technology, I bring a unique perspective to my role as a mentor, guiding the next generation of creative talent.

My journey began with a strong foundation in storytelling across various mediums, mainly video production and animation. After graduating, my classmates and I ventured into the industry by establishing our own production studio, Northern Lights Films & Studio. Over time, we worked on a diverse range of video production projects, from music videos and corporate commercials to motion design, animation, event visuals, and projection mapping. Our work received numerous awards and recognition at both local and international competitions and film festivals.

As our business grew, we shifted our focus towards helping brands develop their identity through branding and content design. This experience deepened my understanding of how creative content contributes to business growth and market success.

In 2016, I had the opportunity to explore education by teaching at Dasein Academy of Art. It was then that I discovered my passion for teaching and education. Inspired by the mentors I have met throughout my career, I decided to fully dedicate myself to education in 2021 by joining Dasein Academy of Art as a full-time educator. Today, I serve as the Head of Programme for Digital Media, where I design and manage teaching methodologies to enhance student learning.

Through my experience in all aspects of life—from industry practice and entrepreneurship to education and mentorship—I strive to spark creativity and train students in critical and cognitive thinking, enabling them to analyze challenges, develop innovative solutions, and apply problem-solving skills in real-world scenarios.

Ultimately, my goal is to make learning an enjoyable and enriching experience, to motivate students to learn, and to promote lifelong learning.
