Soo... I dove head first into game development by attending The Art Institute of Atlanta (RIP). I knew I was an all around creative in high school, but didn’t realize how perfect that was for game development until I was getting ready to graduate with my Bachelors degree in Game Art & Design. During college I picked up skills in industry standard tools like Photoshop and Unreal. I even gained a deeper understanding of storytelling, art fundamentals, and sequential art, which proved helpful for all my creative passions. Concepts that today, I’d be lost without. Unfortunately, in spite of the robust art training put in place that made me more hirable, I felt our curriculum fell short on extensive design education. I really wanted to dive in on creating worlds that never existed and making them feel real.
