During my life I've come to enjoy computer programs and would like to have a career in video game development. I graduated high school in 2006. I was then accepted to DigiPen, a technological school located in Redmond, Washington specializing in computer game design. I attended DigiPen for one year before determining that for financial reasons and to lighten my course load I would take most of my general education at the junior college back home. I intend to return to DigiPen in the Fall of 2009 and graduate with a Bachelors Degree in Real Time Interactive Simulation. I then hope get a job working for Valve, entertainment software and technology company founded in 1996 and based in Bellevue, Washington. I would like to design Role Playing Games, games that involve character development and plot building.
