BIO

I'm Matt Zuniga, a designer and analyst working where education, AI, and visual communication meet. I hold an M.A. in Educational Innovation, Technology, and Entrepreneurship from UNC Chapel Hill (Edupreneur concentration, High Pass in every course) and a B.A. in Digital Media and Professional Communications from Texas Tech, with a Certification in Sports Media.

My work runs across five tracks: design (brand identity, collateral, social graphics), presentation (decks, training materials, video), data (research, dashboards, analysis), AI (tools, apps, adoption work), and leadership (governance, committees, advocacy). Most of what I know I taught myself by practicing with new tools in my free time, and I like pairing art with technical work rather than treating them as separate.

Everything I make ties back to ZUN, a personal brand built from my last name, as a way to build a kind of family among the people who interact with it. I try to apply myself to everything that fascinates me; greatness is the product of pursuing your passions. The influence behind that method is credited in the receipt at the foot of every page.
