I'M ELiana F. 

I graduated Magna Cum Laude from New York University in May 2013, majoring in economics and minoring in psychology. Throughout college, I have worked at multiple financial institutions, including Credit Suisse Investment Banking, determined to break into wall street. However, I have always taken a strong interest in the creative field. After graduation, I moved out to Los Angeles to work in the themed entertainment industry.

I am currently pursuing a MFA degree in Design and Technology (MFADT) at Parsons The New School of Design. At Parsons MFADT, I engage in a wide range of disciplines, including User Experience Design, Motion Design, Game Design, and Programming. I like to take a holistic approach to my life, hoping to synthesize my background in economics and psychology with my passion in design and technology.

In my spare time, I am an avid traveler, having resided in three continents and traveled to more than 20 countries in Asia, North America, South America and Europe. Besides that, I love extreme sports, going to concerts and losing myself in loud music, freestyle dancing, and all sorts of physical activities (rock climbing, kickboxing) that can keep me in shape.
