I am an Game Developer who began my game-making journey in 2016 when I started using Unreal Engine as a hobbyist. Over the years, that hobby turned into a passion. That passion went from learning Unreal, to learning countless other software, languages, and theories. It spawned a need and want to learn 3D modeling, 2D textures and materials, UI/UX, game design theory, animation and rigging, 2D sprite animation, particle and visual effects, sound design, even another game engine (Godot), amongst a million other things. Every time I learn something new, I discover a whole new path that needs to be explored and learned.

​

During the midst of Covid, I found out that San Diego's Mesa College was offering some online classes for Unreal Engine and I thought it would be a great opportunity to expand my knowledge. This lead me down a path of taking numerous other game-dev related classes including C++, Python, Business of Games, Game Design theory, 3D modeling, and several others.

​

Through meeting and working alongside other aspiring game developers and industry professionals, I discovered a community of people who are sharing a similar experience as me. I found out about IGDA meetups and the various Discord servers where devs discuss, ask questions, and help each other with various aspects of game development. While my original plan was to go it alone, I have since realized that I don't have to.

Have a look at my Projects page to see what I have been up to. And thank you for taking the time to read this.
