I got my start with Game Design at an early age, attending a summer program in 2014 that introduces the topic of game programming to aspiring developers. This led me down the path of pursuing programming at a vocational high school, studying Programming and Web Development as my major during my time there. During my time in high school, I participated in national competitions with the company Business Professionals of America, competing in the state and national level in trade-related competitions. During my senior year of high school, I received a plaque for third place in the nation in a Software Engineering Open Event competition.After graduating high school, I pursued my education in programming even further, enrolling in Game Development at Bristol Community College. There, I maintained a 4.0 GPA and used my time to create projects that showcased the best of my abilities. After graduating with an Associates degree, I transferred to Fitchburg State University to continue my education for my Bachelor's in Game Design. At Fitchburg State University, I only continued to showcase my efforts, creating games that have received public recognition and awards.
