Hi, I'm John! I'm a senior Honors Digital Media and Design student at the University of Connecticut with a concentration in game design and a minor in computer science. I'm super passionate about coding, digital arts and animation, storytelling, 3D modeling, and video game development!

​

I was born and raised in the US by parents who immigrated from the Philippines. I grew up playing classic Nintendo titles with my family, inspired by both fantasy and sci-fi to make creative experiences of my own through technical mediums.

​

I've developed a number of short independent projects such as the horror mystery visual novel “Stargaze” and the platformer “Bomb Blast,” and I've contributed to the Global Game Jam entries “Rootsoup” and “Noise Complaint."

 

I have also worked as a graphic designer for the UConn Civil and Environmental Engineering Department and a copy editor/digital producer for the university’s student-run newspaper, The Daily Campus.

 

I'm looking forward to employing the skills I've honed until now in the video game industry!
