Resume
My personal mission as a professional level designer is to deliver rich and engaging gameplay experiences that are both fun and challenging for either new or existing IP's.
Acquiring and expanding upon my skillset with various level editors and tools within the realm of game development. Always challenging myself and always wanting to be better and outdo myself with every new opportunity.
