About This Speaker: Cesar Kuriyama
Cesar was born in Peru but grew up a math and science nerd in New Jersey. A passion for movies and storytelling ultimately drew him to study several artistic fields at Pratt Institute of Art and design in Brooklyn, NY.
For years he worked in the advertising world for notable clients like BMW, Verizon, & the NFL. His personally produced work has millions of views and been featured in publications like Fast Company, Wired, CNN, BBC, and The New York Times.
