I’ve been
a Gamer

there was
always a
downside
to Video
Games

Schooling
From private
schooling at
TCA to…

…Game Dev
training at Full Sail,
I’ve been instructed
in how to conduct
myself like a
professional for 20+
years http://www.flickr.com/photos/31426352@N07/2945341284
Valedictorian c/o 2012

tried)

These three factors are
what led me here today
and I could NOT be who I
am without them,
especially my friends who
have supported me all the
way in my Game Dev
Career
Now on to what makes me
ME
http://www.flickr.com/photos/57022230@N00/324458209
Strengths:
Honesty
My parents
have raised
me to tell the
truth (they
would’ve
probably
killed me for
lying :D), and
it’s a value
that I will
stand by to
this day.

Strengths:
Trust
With honesty
being one of
my big
viewpoints, I
trust that
other people
will in turn
show me that
same
respect. I
trust others
judgment
and value
their
criticism.

Strengths:
Teamwork
I work best
with a team
because I
know I make
mistakes
and with a
team I
always know
that someone
has my back
and is ready
to catch me
when I fall. I
in turn will
do the same
for them

Strengths:
Creativity
I see
creativity as
a way to have
fun and
relax. I can
do this with
Video
Games, with
Minecraft
being one of
my more
prominent
outlets
recently.

Weaknesses:
Public
Speaking
Lets face it,
I’m a terrible
public
speaker.
Even the
thought of
giving a
speech
freaks me
out, but this
is something
that I have to
overcome
and I’m
working on
it.

Weaknesses:
My Vision
This one is
quite literal.
As of 2014
My vision
dropped
significantly
to a point
where I’m
having to get
a surgery to
fix it.
Hopefully
this
weakness is
only a minor
speed bump,
but we’ll see.

But that enough
about that, now on
to what I’ve done
so far and what I
aim to do in the
future

My
dream
is to one
day
work at
PopCap
Games
http:// http://www.flickr.com/photos/54095611@N02/11071035593
There
I would
be able to
get my
foot in the
door with
both
console
and
mobile
development
while
getting to
work with
one of my
favorite
dev
companies

soon!
