David Estes-Smargiassi Email & Phone Number

I am a recent graduate from Stevens Institute of Technology, where I received a Master's degree in Computer Science and a Bachelor's degree in Music and Technology. In my undergrad, I focused primarily on sound design and composition. I have a passion for video games. Throughout my college career, I have worked on multiple games both for game jams and for academic courses. For many of these games (Memory Leak, Cutting Room Floor, and When Life Gives You Lemons), I created them entirely on my own.I have worked at Nokia Bell Labs (previously Alcatel-Lucent Bell labs) since October 2015 as a co-op in their Immersive Communications department. While there, I have worked on many projects ranging from developing interactive exhibits and compositions to creating immersive haptic experiences. I have a background in working at summer camps . In summer 2016, I was the Counselor-In-Training Director at North Woods YMCA Camp, training 16 year olds to be camp counselors. Prior to that, I have taught many activities including Woodshop, Campcraft, and Photography. I started a music program in Summer 2014 in which we created and performed mash-ups of popular songs. In summer 2015, I worked at a The Pixel Academy in Brooklyn, NY as a camp counselor teaching Digital Music, Video Game Soundtracking, and Minecraft Modding.
