Summary

Hello, My name is Joseph Blackwell. I graduated from Full Sail University in July 2023 with my Bachelors Degree of Science in Game Design. July 2021, I became an inductee to The National Society of Collegiate Scholars honor society. My hope is to join a company that can help me to grow the skills I have acquired from during my college journey, as well as utilize past work experience and help me expand on them in order to further the knowledge I have. I am eager to learn more, and apply what I have already learned to the best of my ability.
