From the first time I got my hands on one, I’ve loved to play all sorts of video games. But more than that, I developed a fascination with how they were made. How on earth could we go from 1s and 0s to what I was looking at on the screen?!

Though I’m still working on that part, thankfully you don’t have to know how to make a computer from scratch to make a game! At 10 I discovered that even I was capable of making the same games that I enjoyed playing so much thanks to a site called Roblox, and it wasn’t until 4 years later that I really decided to give it a try.

Now, at 25, I have worked on a number of various projects to test and hone my skills and I am continuing to maintain a game that has been played by over 4.5 million different people! I suppose my only regret would be that I didn’t start earlier.

While I may not be able to go back in time, I still have the opportunity to help kids interested in making games just like me, get a head start in such an amazing field. Using the experiences I have learned I hope to help guide my students through all the hurdles I once went through and allow them to create some truly amazing projects in the future.
