I'm Drew Silva, a tech artist based in Providence, RI. As a professional, I have the ideas, perspective, and skills of a fresh art school graduate and the professional, technical, and leadership sensibilites of a seasoned developer.

I transitioned into this field after more than a decade as a software developer and designer at Harvard Law School's Library Innovation Lab. Collaborating with a world-class, multidisciplinary team in an ever-evolving role was incredible, but I craved art in my professional life.

In 2024, I graduated Magna Cum Laude from Lesley University's Game Design & Immersive Media BFA Program. Their senior Design and Animation faculty and the newly recruited Game Design and VFX faculty from Becker College guided my exploration of the latest and most exciting ideas, applications, and processes in the field. Additionally, developing my artistic and design sensibilites through fine art drawing, 3D character animation, and graphic design yielded genuine dual-expertise in artistic and technical pursuits.
