Nice to meet you, I'm Maria Antonia from Colombia. I believe the key to creating value lies in crafting stories that are impactful through digital experiences, surprising and sparking curiosity to captivate and provoke emotions. With a passion for 3D and visually stunning motion design, I aim for that WOW factor — the hook that keeps attention locked in. Fun fact: I love cracking riddles, playing board games, and diving into things that come with a hint of risk and adventure! In my free time: You can find me dancing, lost somewhere discovering something new, or getting inspired from nature.
