With over 28 years of experience in digital marketing, design, development, and education, I seamlessly integrate real-world industry practices with education. My career started in 1996, advancing from designer to Creative Director, where I led teams to deliver impactful, award-winning projects. I continue to actively practice my craft, ensuring that my teaching is always informed by current industry standards and challenges.After co-founding and growing Transcend eBusiness, I launched Effectif Works, a creative media production company that supports renowned advertising and media agencies, as well as prominent companies, with tailored, high-quality production services. I focus on delivering solutions that merge strategic design thinking with practical execution.In the academic field, I bring my industry expertise into the classroom. Over my 9 years at NAFA, I gained extensive experience teaching Millennials and Gen Z, guiding them with practical knowledge grounded in real-world application. Currently, as a Senior Lecturer at ITE College Central, I continue to elevate my teaching through structured pedagogical training and the development of relevant AI-focused curriculum. This unique combination of active industry involvement and systematic teaching allows me to craft educational experiences that prepare students for success in the modern workforce.In addition to my industry work and teaching, I am deeply engaged in exploring the future of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), particularly with AI-driven technologies. My research interests focus on even more intuitive human-device interactions through AR, VR, and Mixed Reality (MR). Soon, smart glasses will replace mobile phones as the primary device, ushering in a new era where the real world seamlessly overlaps with virtual environments. This shift will transform not just how we use devices, but fundamentally change how we live, learn, work, and experience entertainment, opening vast opportunities for content creation in the virtual space. I also anticipate the rise of brain-device interfaces, enabling even deeper connections between humans and technology.Let’s connect to explore how my blend of industry experience, educational expertise, and forward-thinking vision can help achieve your goals.
