Hi there, I'm Cindy!
I graduated from the Centre for Digital Media with a Master of Digital Media degree in 2022. I also hold a Bachelor of Applied Science degree in Computer Engineering from the University of British Columbia. Currently, I am an Interactive Developer at ngx Interactive, a creative technology studio, where I develop interactive exhibit software for galleries, science centres, museums, and more.
As a developer, I strive to use my technical and problem-solving skills to create digital media products, including interactive experiences, video games, and workflow tools. The process of transforming a linear algebra equation or an algorithm into memorizing visuals has never ceased to amaze me.
My love of storytelling has led me to explore different creative spaces such as photography, video production, illustration, game design, and behaviour science. A generalist mindset helps me become a quick learner and communicate effectively at the intersection of arts and technology.
In my free time, I am actively involved in the Vancouver International Film Festival. I volunteer as a year-round video editor, working closely with the marketing team and the curators to create sizzle reels, highlights, and preview trailers for the social media and the VIFF Centre. I was also on the International Screening Committee during 2020-2022, previewing narrative features and documentary features in consideration for the film festival.
