Andrew Vergara

Interactive Designer/Developer

Aliso Viejo, CA, USA
I am a digital creative. What does that mean? Quite simply it means that I create things consumed in the digital environment. I design, develop and animate all things in the digital world. I have created work for public installations, mobile devices, tablets, television and the web. If there is a digital medium I have yet to create for, I can't wait to get started on it.
