A Bit About Me
I am a game developer that specialises in UI/UX be it in programming or design. I love creating meaningful and memorable experiences for both users and players, and I strive to provide the least user frustration as much as possible while delivering maximum impact.
I am always willing to take ownership and go the extra mile for any project I am involved in. When I'm not hard at work, I can usually be found playing games.
I have been working in the games industry for more than 4 years and currently hold a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and Games Design from Digipen Institute of Technology (Singapore).
