Marek Kočvara Email & Phone Number

When I was a little kid and people asked me what I wanted to be when I grow up, I would answer that I want to be a scientist. A bit older me would tell you that they wanted to be a programmer making games. And now I'm doing just that. Computers have always fascinated me and I went from enjoying to make things move in videogames to now enjoying making things move through writing code, as well as learning why and how they move. My university studies gave me many opportunities to explore all the things I've always wanted to do, and took full advantage of it - I have achieved a 1st class result in all my modules and graduated with a final mark of 86. I learned plenty of programming languages, like Java, C, C++, JavaScript and Assembly Language, as well as exploring other areas, such as HTML & CSS, XML, JSON, SQL, UML, Unreal Engine, bash, and more theoretical knowledge, such as project management, Systems Analysis, and User-Centered Design.But I'm also eager to apply all that I've learned in the workplace, which is why I've joined the games development team at d3t first as an intern and now as a full-time Associate Programmer. I'm no stranger to hard work; I've been doing part time jobs since I was 16, and I proudly follow the motto of "If you're going to do something, do it well." I am a highly motivated and reliable worker and I give what I do my all.
