Education

At CG Spectrum I served as a Game Design Technical Assistant while completing my Game Design course. I had the honor to work alongside and learn from several mentors and peers who helped shape my projects and aspirations as well as providing invaluable feedback and constructive criticism. I was actively engaged with the community, assisted and guided other students as best I could, held interviews with industry developers, refined course curriculum, and generally worked to improve my technical knowledge and design skills.
