Hi there! I’m Lex and I’m a game developer with experience in game design and project management. My background is on Computer Science where I have a MSc in Computer Science.I started on the industry as a programmer in 2009 on a startup company in Itajubá – Minas Gerais. There I rapidly became the lead programmer in many projects and took various responsibilities. Those include research for new technologies, game designs, project documentations and, of course, a lot of programming.As the company grew, so did my responsibilities and experiences. In 2011 I was promoted to R&D Department Manager, and became responsible for the whole development process. During the next 3 years I helped the company publish 6 games on platforms like iOS, Android, Kongregate and OUYA. Among my responsibilities were all the game design and documentation for the projects, choices on technologies, project management and believe it or not, still a lot of programming.In 2013, I was dismissed due to a company crisis and started working on my Master’s Degree. Trying to focus on game development related stuff, I had my dissertation in the field of Artificial Intelligence, using genetic algorithms to generate high quality Procedural Content for games. During this period I also kept in touch with the game industry, reading a lot of articles, books about game design, and taking online courses in the field. I also did some freelancer jobs, developing games for local companies. I obtained my Master’s at the end of 2016.In 2017 I joined INSANE as a Programmer on the development of the most challenging project I'm yet to face: Profane, an Open World Sandbox MMORPG. In 2018 I moved forward and became the Lead Programmer of our team overseeing the project architecture and the development teams as a whole.I'm currently working hard on making this project happen, not just because I think it's a fun game but also because it's filled with challenges and I can already see a tremendous personal evolution from what I've already learned with it.

Listed skills include Game Design, Programming, Game Development, Video Games, and 17 others.
