Currently, I’m a senior at DigiPen Institute of Technology going for a major in Real-Time Interactive Simulation, basically computer programming with an emphasis on games. After three long years and a wide variety of programming projects, I’ve discovered a passion for many aspects of game programming. I find that I excel as being a generalist game programmer, but specifically enjoy gameplay, tools, and user-interfaces.
In the spring of 2006, I graduated from Centennial Senior High School in my hometown of Circle Pines, Minnesota. I grew up playing video games at a young age, starting with the NES, and continue to enjoy them today on the Wii and Xbox 360. The two biggest games that influenced me to join the games industry were M.C. Kids, and Ocarina of Time. I'm also a huge fan of the Halo series.
In my spare time, I enjoy biking the trails of Redmond on my Cannondale R700 and playing tennis on the weekends. The Washington area is also great for day hikes up local peaks like Cougar and Tiger mountain. I prefer the summer months, but I'm also fond of the snowy winters back home in Minnesota. |
