Hard working, creative digital artist excited to begin career in video game development. I've been passionate about art and video game development as long as I can remember. In high school I enrolled in Digipen Institute of Technology's WANIC Video Game Program (AP computer science) classes as a Junior & Senior. In order to participate, I organized my high school schedule to allow me to complete all of my required courses in a half day while attending Digipen in the afternoon. Upon graduation, I was accepted into the BS in Real Time Interactive Simulation. However, my first passion is art and video games, so I submitted my personal portfolio of work and was also accepted into the BFA in Digital Art & Animation, which I chose to pursue. My classes in computer science have been of benefit for me communicating and understanding the integration of other key element into final games and projects. Digipen provided a challenging environment, working at industry standards. I am a focused, diligent team player, able to work within a group, while providing my individualized components and talent. Always on time or ahead of schedule. During my final project, working with a group of 15 others, I often put in 30+ hours a week on this project, in addition to finishing the rest of my mandatory and challenging core classes. Working long hours on game development is how I want to spend my career.
