Profile:
I am a 2nd year game development student at the Open Window Institute. Prior to this I completed 2 years of Animation at City Varsity.

At school and at university I have demonstrated a strong attention to detail and analytical ability, specifically when dealing with situations that involved coding, at school I was taught Java and NetBeans where I thoroughly enjoyed our projects dealing with databases. An additional project that was really interesting was coding a maze solving robot.

Art and programming have always been an interest of mine, in school I chose to take IT as a subject so that I could get a fundamental understanding of coding before going and studying it further at university. I am dedicated to the field of Game Development, as I find it extremely interesting and have had many opportunities to learn and expand my skills in the field.

Having worked on projects that involve a team, has helped me develop the ability to work with others and to see others point of view, it has made me open minded and a good team player in a project.

Going to the gym and playing sports specifically basketball, has taught me the importance of a healthy lifestyle especially in a field that does not promote a lot of movement.

Personal Statement:
My vision for my brand is to expand and touch others lives through coding, and game development as it has touched mine. The friendships and bonds that I have formed through gaming are going to be lifelong and I want to create experiences and friendships like that for others. My brand's voice is casual and relaxed as it allows people to know that we are like them, understand how they feel, and know what kinds of experiences they want from us. My values are integrity, honesty and hard work. My brand essence is to do things well and efficiently.
