I’ve created hundreds of engaging and educational videos/tutorials for paper crafts and through my platform, I've collaborated with companies like Riot Games, Sony, and Adobe. Additionally, I've had the opportunity to teach origami at a maximum security prison and I was also invited as a special guest to OrigamiUSA's 2023 origami convention in New York, where I taught an original origami design. Through my online presence, I share my creativity, innovation, and communication skills, as well as my ability to connect with global audience.
