Hello there,

I extend a warm and humble welcome to you as you step into the world I've woven within my online portfolio. My name is Sandy Duong, a dedicated enthusiast who has serendipitously fallen head over heels in love with the realms of 3D modeling, texturing, rendering, composition, and video editing.

My true passion resides in the art of translating not only concepts but also the intangible desires of others into tangible designs. My expertise shines most brilliantly in the domains of events, exhibitions, weddings, and parties, where I derive immense joy from crafting unforgettable experiences through creative visual elements.

In addition to my professional pursuits, I find solace and satisfaction in crafting handmade cards, miniatures, and exquisite floral arrangements. These pursuits, as unconventional as they may seem, are a testament to my unwavering dedication to the world of creativity.

I'm thrilled that you've taken the time to explore my portfolio, and I look forward to the possibility of connecting with you further. Whether it's a discussion about event design, interior decor, or any creative endeavor that piques your interest, don't hesitate to reach out and say hello.

About me!
