Cristina Kuong has been passionate in digital arts since childhood, going to movie theaters and watching movies and animations made with the aid of computers. After interning at Curious Pictures and getting her BFA in Computer Arts from School of Visual Arts (SVA) in New York, Cristina joined R/GA New York in 2006 as a CG Artist. Cristina has been generating award winning commercials for Microsoft, Samsung, Verizon, Walmart, Nike, etc. Cristina currently continues to expand her technical aptitude with explorations across Post Production, VFX, and AR/VR. Recently she's made some deep dives into Unreal Engine, starting with Virtual Production training at NYU Tandon, continuing with several internal Metaverse projects and initiatives at R/GA. In her free time, she likes to go back to the basics, painting or drawing with traditional mediums.
