hello!

I’m Vanessa Cunha – an interactive media creator passionate about crafting engaging and personal experiences. With a background in motion graphics, production, and game design, I specialize in blending design, storytelling, and technology to create immersive and interactive content. Whether it's graphics in a packed arena, live television broadcast production, or interactive gaming elements, my goal is always the same: to capture attention, spark emotion, and make memorable media experiences.

Outside of my creative work, I have taken inspiration from my past, having a dedicated interest in pediatric psychology and entertainment. My Master’s Thesis conceptualizes a digital platform meant to help bridge the gap between child life specialists and their access to proper and modern resources, ensuring all pediatric patients can be met with the same level of attention that helped inspire the person I am today. Additionally, I have a strong background in music and audio engineering, having studied as a vocalist at the OCVTS Grunin Performing Arts Academy. I am a part of the Garden of Dreams Foundation (GDF) as a Make-A-Wish New Jersey alumnus. Through GDF, I’ve had the incredible honors of performing at Radio City Music Hall, the New York Rangers’ Hockey Fights Cancer Night (National Anthem), and the New York Rangers Casino Night (to name a few)! I have a personal passion for theater, and I utilize these skills both in and out of the workplace to further amplify immersion in entertainment. You can learn more about those experiences here!

I’m currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Game Design and Production and a Master of Science in Digital Media at Drexel University, with graduation scheduled for this year (2026)! My passion for interactive media is deeply personal. As a two-time pediatric cancer survivor, I grew up relying on media as a source of escape, inspiration, and connection—especially during times when my health limited my physical abilities. Playing Super Smash Bros. Melee or watching Gravity Falls with my older brother became core memories when I had nothing else. Media has an incredible influence on who we become and can connect us in remarkable ways, and I love getting to be a part of that process now as a creative.
