About Me
Hi there!
By now I suspect you know who I am by the name of the website and the page headers, if not allow me to introduce myself... I am Brandon and my biggest passion is game design, creation, and exploration of technology. There wasn't a time in my life that I can remember where I didn't want to be a Game Designer, it truly has been my life long goal & my love for video games begun at a very young age, spending time with relatives who would show me the ropes and lend a helping hand in completing the certain mission, from then on it was clear to me what I wanted to achieve in life; To create media products to appease the masses.
​
The majority of my drive comes purely from curiosity and figuring out what I can do with my abilities, I take inspiration from many things like music, comics, film & tv, and of course video games. It interests me to be able to give life to things that are simply nothing and just a few lines of code; ones and zeros in a machine that act on our command.
