I have a passion for computer programming and solving complex problems utilizing technology. I bring an entrepreneurial drive with a strong interest in computer systems and virtual reality as well as artificial intelligence. My goal is to apply this passion to various urgent industries such as entertainment, aerospace, autonomous electric vehicles, and quantum computing. My academic and career goals of computer programming and graphics design are rooted in my passion for the art of storytelling. When I was a child, I would write short stories for my family and classmates to read. As I got older, I began to use video cameras and editing software to bring these stories to life. Once I started to learn more about computers, I realized that I could tell stories in new ways by creating video games. At 15, I started my own company called Last Man Games. "Skybound" was the first full game that I created. It was released on the Google Play Store. Later, I went on to create Mr. Casey's Crazy Cart. This game was released on the Google Play Store as well as the Apple App Store. The game was ranked #83 for strategy games in the United States the first weekend it was released in Feb 2020. I now have plenty of personal projects that were created in Unreal Engine 5 and Unity, however, these have not yet been released.Technology is changing at lightning-fast speeds and touches so many different aspects of our lives. AI is becoming a more mainstream phenomenon that we can use for a variety of different things. Many companies are trying to capitalize on this improvement, especially in the video game and graphics space, and I see this as a great opportunity to make new things happen. As I continue my studies at ASU, I am seeking opportunities for internships in the field of software development and hardware design so that I may help make an impact at today's most innovative companies.I enjoy learning new things and strive to become a thought leader in the digital space. Through my coursework as well as my personal projects, I am learning the best practices for the development of computer software. I am skilled in various programming languages and game engines, and I believe that I will be able to contribute to an organization’s success through problem-solving, hard work, and attention to detail.
