Grew up playing and being mesmerized by videogames. Life took different turns and instead of following my dreams of becoming a game designer, I joined medicine school in 2015. In 2018, I came to realize that such career path wasn't for me.

 

I tried to drop out, but for personal reasons, I wasn't allowed to. Life then felt stuck and dull. That's when I started creating videogames as a self-taught developer and, despite of being tired due the workload of being a medicine student by day and game developer by night, I finally felt like I was moving forward. 

​

That lifestyle went on for the next three years: from 2018 to 2021, I worked as a solo developer and acquired skills in different fields such as art, programming, game & level design, sound, animation, video editing, game engines, community management, feedback gathering and documentation.

​

One year after graduating in medicine, I stumbled upon a rare opportunity: Vancouver Film School (VFS) was looking for scholarship candidates for their game design course. I sent my projects their way and was awarded with two scholarships at the institution, acclaimed as the #1 game design school in Canada. 

​

Since then, I left my medicine career behind and graduated in Game Design at VFS in 2023. Today, I've been through 4 full production cycles, learned industry standards from highly experienced developers and am utterly excited to work on games alongside passionate colleagues and friends for many years to come!​
