About Luis Cataldi

With a career spanning more than three decades, I\'ve navigated the realms of television production, feature films, game development, education, classical ballet and artistic leadership, each role adding a unique layer to my skill set. During my impactful time at Epic Games, I assumed pivotal roles, actively engaging with the global academic community and shaping the learning strategies of Unreal Engine through thought leadership and strategic connections to Epic\'s robust support networks. With a global charter, I found myself on countless stages worldwide, addressing and inspiring thousands of developers and learners alike. My career narrative weaves together a tapestry of battle-tested production expertise, teaching prowess, on-the-ground community building, forming a distinct professional identity. From founding educational communities to steering art teams in the development of groundbreaking projects, my journey is a testament to an unwavering commitment to innovation, education, and the seamless intersection of technology and creativity. Cataldi has also been a avid practitioner of Aikido for over 25 years and currently hold the rank of Godan within the USAF and Hombu Dojo in Japan.
