NADIA KOOLINA
Nadia grew up in Singapore, a sunny island on the sea.
Her interdisciplinary background spans storytelling, technology, and visual effects. She studied at Dartmouth College, where she developed a strong interest in systems and experience design, before moving into production roles across tech, animation, and VFX. She later completed a Masters of Design Technology (Animation, Interactive Tech, Video Graphics, Special Effects), and now works as both a Producer and CG Generalist.
In her free time, you might find her projection mapping or muddling cucumbers.
CREATIVE PROJECT MANAGER & PRODUCER
“What you realize when you meet Nadia and work with her over time is that her real power is her emotional quotient. She is able to understand what conditions artists need to do their best work and then sets about creating and protecting those conditions. I feel like if Nadia was a character on Star Trek The Next Generation, she would be Lieutenant Commander Troi. Just really empathetic but also methodical and capable.”
