TaleMate Design
In the area of art, I have been working my skills in creating virtual art. One of the significant projects I undertook in recent years was designing avatars for TaleMate. These avatars represent the "Mates", voice agents that read books to both parents and children.
Additionally, I was responsible for designing the system's interface.
Dancing
One of my primary passions is dancing to Latin American music. I enjoy dancing bachata, salsa, merengue, bolero, and cumbia.
I was a member of the SalsaTech performance team at Virginia Tech for two different semesters.
This passion has also led me to attend festivals to further my learning.
