DESIGNER & STORYTELLER
Born and raised in New Jersey, just outside one of the biggest entertainment hubs in the world, Amanda's upbringing was defined by the vibrant experiences, productions, and exhibitions of Manhattan.
Fascinated by fantastical worlds, their architecture, and history, Amanda desired to build worlds of her own. She recently graduated from Ringling College of Art and Design with a BFA in Entertainment Design and a minor in Art History.
Amanda translates stories into immersive environments across multiple disciplines. She approaches projects by focusing on the narrative being told, which she uses to guide the integrity and theming of each environment. Her stories are often layered in meaning, inspired by resonating topics like climate change, sustainability, gender, and identity. She strives to create deeper significance within immersive experiences by uncovering the stories that connect us all.
A storyteller at heart, Amanda enjoys bringing imaginative worlds to life. She loves concept design and visualization, from quickly brainstorming & sketching ideas to 3D modeling and rendering environments.
