Alina Sommer-Stihl

Passionate “figure it all out” personality with a strong interest in the magic of real-time rendering. Eager to fill the void between art and tech and to be the facilitator of all things beautiful. I love that happy “ahhhh!” glow on an artist’s face when they learn something new.
