About

A story and 3D designer

My name is Ashley Haagsma

Based in the Netherlands, I started my studies in Communication and Multimedia Design at Avans University of Applied Sciences in Breda. People often get confused when I tell them what I study, but CMD is essentially a multi-disciplinary design education that teaches you how to create in various subjects, including game design, web design, robot design, and film design. So far, I have learned many different skills, such as storytelling, Unity, 3D-modeling, Adobe programs, critical thinking, and visual design. Before I discovered this type of education, I was studying Computer Science at the same university, but I soon grew bored with just programming and wanted to be more creative. That's when I stumbled upon CMD.

Now, four years into my studies, I will start my graduation project while simultaneously beginning my physics program at TU Delft. My goal is to combine physics and design to make them more comprehensible for others.
