Nathan Bracamontes

As a 20-year-old Hispanic male currently attending UCLA, I am pursuing a unique academic path that merges my passion for science and economics, majoring in Microbiology, Immunology, and Molecular Genetics as well as Economics. However, my deepest passion lies in video games, which have been a constant source of inspiration and motivation throughout my life. Growing up, I always admired the creativity and complexity behind the games I loved, and that interest has evolved into a desire to be part of the industry that shaped my childhood. At UCLA, I’ve been an active member of the Litigation Club, where I’ve gained practical legal skills through mock trial, case prep, and structured debate experiences that have sharpened my attention to detail and reinforced my interest in legal work. I am excited to apply my academic background, legal training, and lifelong love for gaming toward a meaningful role in the industry, and I am eager to contribute to a team that values creativity, innovation, and integrity.

Litigation Team Member, UCLA Litigation Club
January 2025  Current Member
During my time with UCLA’s Litigation Club, I participated in mock trial exercises that sharpened my analytical thinking and oral advocacy skills. I collaborated with fellow members to prepare case strategies, draft opening statements, and conduct direct and cross-examinations. Through weekly meetings and workshops, I developed a stronger understanding of courtroom procedures and evidentiary rules. I also gained valuable feedback from law students and legal professionals, which helped me refine my legal writing and argumentation. Being part of the club reinforced my interest in legal work and prepared me to contribute effectively in a professional legal environment.

Started Cancer Treatment Research Center in Garage, Nathan Bracamontes, Newport Beach
May 2021  July 2023
At the age of 16, I started and led my own Cancer Treatment Research Center in my garage with 4 friends of mine.
We did this mainly because I saw what chemotherapy did to my grandfather and I felt like I needed to do something to try and help find some sort of alternative treatment.
We paired with a local cancer research company to help us with equipment.

Law Intern, Robles Law, Irvine
December 2023  August 2024
At this law firm, I worked on discovery and intake for new clients.
I previously worked at a law firm that specialized in injury cases.
I would help the attorneys run mock trials, work on discovery, and even show up to trials to study how the attorneys worked while in trial.
I am very eager to work in the field of Law and would love any experience I can get so I can strengthen my knowledge and resume for law school.

Law Intern, Alzamend Neuro, Irvine
October 2023  December 2023
I interned over winter break at a family member’s law firm.
I mainly ran errands for everyone but I would also go with my uncle to visit his clients and he showed me many of his cases and how he is going to approach them.
He also showed me how to run certain programs.

My passion for video games runs deep, and it’s a driving force in everything I do. Despite the doubts I’ve heard from others who say a career in gaming, especially from the legal side, is unlikely or impractical, I can’t ignore the excitement and fulfillment this industry brings me. I believe in the power of games to inspire, connect, and build communities, and I’m determined to work in this field because it’s where my heart truly is. I’m confident that with the right opportunities and mentorship, I can build a successful career that merges my passion for gaming with my dedication to legal work.

My previous experience, such as my internship at Robles Babaee Law Firm, has helped me develop essential professional skills, strong communication, attention to detail, and the ability to manage multiple tasks, that I’m ready to apply in a fast-paced environment like Blizzard Games. If I’m not selected for the current paralegal position, I would still be grateful for the chance to be considered for any internship opportunities within Blizzard’s legal department. Growing up, I played Blizzard titles religiously, and I still remember the excitement of your team visiting my middle school for gaming competitions, those events were a major influence in my decision to pursue a career connected to this industry. Being part of Blizzard Games would mean contributing to a legacy that helped shape who I am, and I’d be honored to bring my skills and passion to your team.
