Aspirations

After exploring many, many different possibilities in my life, I have found that I have a universal constant. I love escapism. I love being drawn away from reality and yet still interacting with others. I enjoy working as part of a team and being able to test my skill alone. And how have I achieved this? Through gaming. I have been a passionate gamer since Dune 2 by Westwood Studios since the ages of 5. And I have been hooked ever since.

But now I am more mature and humbled. And now I seek to move into the industry. I want to be part of the inner workings of a game. I want to be the inner workings of a cohesive development team. I want to produce remarkable content that will be respected by my peers and most importantly the fans. But most of all I want to remain a gamer.

I see myself really jumping into coding. I enjoy working with 3DS Max and other visual packages but I know my limitations. But my true fascination lies with what's beneath. 3D programming and AI strike out at me with unrelenting vigour and I want to become a master within their fields. I seen myself pounding away in my spare time and then some to uncover their mysteries.

In 5 years I see myself working at a junior level within a well respected institution, where I will use any given opportunity to facilitate my ability to work within a team and work alone. I see myself jumping at the opportunities I am going to seek out within the industry and working toward bettering myself. I look forward to being part of a team and interacting with individuals with similar and dissimilar interests. I really enjoy being an active member of a team and respect authority. But conversely, I can be relied upon to function alone and not have to be shepherded constantly.

I love this industry and I strive to be a part of it.
