I have always enjoyed a few things: creating, exploring, learning.

As a young boy, I was always making Lego inventions. I cut whiteboards down to a smaller size and drilled holes in them to fit them in my binder before I ever saw any being sold.

In middle-school I saw the birth of YouTube and started learning to make my own videos. This lead to making animations, which lead to wanting to make games. So, at 12 years old I started learning simple programming from online tutorials.

In High School I continued learning the artistic side of film making, and I also learned some HTML and CSS for website design.

Wanting to dive further in computer coding possibilities while still being able to make some physical hands-on creations, I majored in Computer Engineering.

I may be school taught in many computer design principles and skills such as Object Oriented Programming, Software Design, Hardware Design, Verification, Basic Coding and Organizing Skills. But, I am also self taught in Home Electronic Systems, Website Code Design, Excel Function Automation, Video, 2D and 3D animation, and more.

As you can see I have always loved creating things, and I also love exploring new things.

This interest in exploration and travel has lead me to study abroad at Oxford, England, and live in Japan. There is so much to learn from others everywhere I go. I'm excited to see what else I can learn to create.
