I am a game developer working in Austin, Texas.
I want to be a part of a development studio that has an environment that consumes my passion for creativity and innovation. I believe these two traits pertain to all of the major components of game development - art and design of course, but also software design and implementation. I want to continue working hard, while absorbing and learning from all around me.
