WHO AM I?
I proudly wear my nerd badge. Whether it's diving deep into gaming, exploring the latest tech trends, or conjuring up fantastical worlds in my mind! My interests range from game development and design to the enchanting realms of fantasy and the boundless wonders of sci-fi. When I'm not exploring virtual dungeons you'll find me mastering a different kind of dungeon — Dungeons and Dragons that is 🐉! As a Dungeon Master, I'm running unforgettable tales and lead my fellow adventurers on epic journeys.
Academically, I'm also deeply fascinated by the complex world of Human-Computer Interaction, including topics such as user-experience, user-research, and user-motivation. You could say I'm on a quest to decode the intricate dance of human behavior with technology.
In my undergrad days, I was all about programming my way through epic game development adventures. However, my master's journey introduced me to the world of design challenges and human study research, embracing a user-centric approach. Tackling problems and crafting solutions with the users always in mind.
Ambitious, creative, and disciplined — that's me in a nutshell. I'm a 'can-do' kind of person, always up for a challenge. My ideal playground? A small, tight-knit team where everyone's not just inclusive but proudly geeky. Of course, I'm no stranger to solo quests either. Give me a problem to resolve or some serious programming to tackle, and I'll happily zone out, headphones on, and coffee at the ready.
So, whether it's slaying code dragons, exploring the uncharted territories of design, or embarking on a new research quest, count me in! Let's create something awesome together, live long and prosper!
Oh, and did I mention my love for cats? =^_^= They're like real-life companions on my epic quests.
