Who am I?
Hi there! I am Jamie, and I really like making things.
​
I'm a university student studying games development with a focus on software coding. Learning new things and creating from that knowledge is what I am passionate about.
​
I have a wide range of skills, allowing me to approach various aspects of development with confidence.
​
What drives me specifically though, is pursuing something creative. I use the skills and experiences I have had to help my peers, within university and the industry. Aiming to create new and fascinating experiences that all can enjoy and benefit from.
​
In my spare time, I enjoy gaming, exercising, learning something new, building a new game or program, and enjoying a walk through a forest.
What do I have proficiency in?
