Virtual Production

I am one of the few women working in virtual production, a cutting-edge sector of VFX that combines computer science and film. I was the main virtual production operator and technical artist for Netflix's "Avatar the Last Airbender."

Code Your Chances

I founded a nonprofit that introduces young girls to the creative uses of computer science and how they can apply their unique creativity to tech. Our mission is to inspire a new generation of diverse leaders in computer science by focusing on how computer science is used in creative industries, such as film production, game development, AR, VR, and creative uses of AI. CYC works with communities that have limited access to tech education.
