Anatol Bogun
I currently live in New Zealand and work as a web and multimedia designer for The University of Auckland, mainly in the fields of virtual learning environments and blended teaching and learning. I won the University of Auckland 2009 General Staff Excellence Award for Innovation which is conferred every year to one staff member across the entire University.
I also do self-employed work as a web and multimedia designer and developer and teach a web design short course as a contractor for Raffles College of Design & Commerce.
In my free time I largely keep myself busy with story development, animated short films or doing anything completely off-screen such as hiking, playing guitar or shamisen, learning Japanese, reading, etc.
