Available to hire
I am Serena Rapisarda, a dedicated 3D Modeler and Event Planner from Catania, Italy. With a strong background in scenography, computer graphics, and cultural heritage sciences, I enjoy blending creativity with technical skills in roles such as animation, costume design, and event organization.
