With a BA in Cognitive Science from UC Berkeley and an MA in 3D Animation from the Academy of Art University, I began my software development career at Telltale Games as a Technical Artist, where I automated the 3D character-rigging process. Transitioning to the cinematics department, I enhanced the game-authoring pipeline and applied cinematography techniques to support Telltale's storytelling focus.After managing the Cinematics Department and working remotely from Southern California, I continued to advance my coding skills. As the current Director of IT at Prime Tech Cabinets, I implemented an ERP system and developed tools to customize the data pipeline, optimizing operations and data management.My next step is to leverage my Cognitive Science education, storytelling and interactivity skills from Telltale, and usability tools from Prime Tech to create AI-driven applications for individualized learning for children with speech and language challenges. I am particularly interested in therapeutic training for speech and language mechanics and assistive technology that enhances accessibility in interpreting and generating language in the written form.
