Why Digital Media?

I chose to apply to the MDM program because I wanted to level up! This is a fast paced and competitive industry with limited resources to mentorship; the MDM offers resources to students to help turn an idea into reality. 

Having been in the 3D industry for about 5 years, I realized just how fast the industry moves. It’s nearly impossible to keep up with software updates. That’s why I decided to take on a deeper understanding of the structure around the digital media, because if I can master the current landscape, I can be apart of the overarching framework of the next big innovation.
