CV
I am an aspiring Level Designer who graduated the Computer Games Design course with First-Class Honours at Teesside University in 2023. I am continuing my academic journey by studying MA Games Design at Teesside University 2025 - 2026.
I have experience within a few different disciplines of Game Development however I mainly focus on Level Design and Gameplay Design usually trying to combine the two using blueprint scripting to enhance world events. I will sometimes go into technical design, UI design and narrative design to also improve my skills and understanding of design as a whole.
My current Main Project I am working on is my Masters Project "is it possible to make a single player FPS level universally playable without compramising challenge?". While i am studying I am still however learning how to better myself as a designer and partaking in Game Jams whenever possible.
