Summary
As an international student with a graduate degree in Interactive Media and Game Design from Worcester Polytechnic Institute, I am passionate about creating engaging gaming experiences. I completed my Bachelor of Science degree at the University of California, Irvine with a Computer Game Science Major. In my educational experience, I took many classes and joined several academic video game projects to develop proficiency in key programming languages including C++, Python, and C#. During this experience, I also gain hands-on experience with industry-standard engines like Unity and Unreal. In one of my projects, I worked on the scripting of characters' behavior and combat system and got a good grade in the class. And now I am doing my graduate project related to AI and pedagogy in video games. Seeking an internship or formal role related to video game programming, I am eager to contribute my technical expertise and innovative thinking to a team dedicated to pushing the boundaries of video game programming.
