With an unwavering desire to encourage empathy and cultural understanding, her innovative approach to storytelling seamlessly merges visual mediums with cutting-edge technologies, reflecting the symbiotic relationship between media and culture.

    Experience



    With her previous professional experience as an interactive content developer, designer, and 3D generalist, Yuna leverages 3D modeling, animation, motion design, and real-time simulation to craft engaging experiences across various interactive platforms, including AR, VR, and web-based interactions. Her 3D art and design research experience extends to working with an interdisciplinary team to design a choreographic live coding platform with motion-captured animation. She recently participated in cross-campus conferences in Canada and Virginia to further develop character narratives of virtual 3D avatars related to that project.
