James B. Email & Phone Number

I have a deep passion for creative technologies, falling often on the problem solving of programming.Games are a medium to express ideas, convey emotions and realise fantastical worlds to others, I dedicated much of my learning to become a part of this process.Throughout my bachelors, I found a fascination with Artificial Intelligence, especially the intricacy of refining algorithms to replicate behaviour, or generate something new. Using my Final Year Project to compare tree search algorithms that handle chance events for perfect information games.I undertook a Software Engineering Masters in which I expanded my knowledge of coding practices and based my dissertation on exploring the usefuleness of multi-objective genetic algorithms to generate game artificial intelligence.I am currently a Games Programming / Development / Design and Programming lecturer at Staffordshire University, focusing on Artificial Intelligence, Employability, and Emergent Technologies.I am open to forging new connections with industry members to enhance our courses and fill skill gaps in the games industry with exceptional graduates across multiple disciplines.I am also open to new research and enterprise opportunities suitable for Staffordshire University students, graduates, and staff members to collaborate on.

Listed skills include Customer Service, C++, C#, Team Management, and 27 others.
