What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to grow as a programmer in a collaborative and innovative environment.

As a dedicated programmer and scripter, I am currently pursuing a B.F.A in Interactive Design and Game Development at the Savannah College of Art and Design, with an anticipated graduation in 2026. My experience as a Lead Programmer at StarStrike Studios has equipped me with the skills to program game systems that streamline the integration of assets and mechanics into games. I thrive on taking innovative ideas and transforming them into functional prototypes, ensuring that systems are not only effective but also user-friendly for my team.

In addition to my programming expertise, I have a background in customer service through my roles at FoodCity and CrossRoads Hardware. These experiences have honed my communication skills and ability to collaborate effectively with others. I am detail-oriented and adept at problem-solving, which allows me to tackle challenges head-on and contribute positively to team dynamics. I am passionate about creating engaging and immersive gaming experiences and am eager to further develop my skills in a dynamic work environment.
