Academic Journey
After finishing my VWO in Aruba .I moved to the Netherlands to attend Breda University of Applied Sciences for a Bachelor's in Creative Media and Game Technologies.
At the beginning, I was interested in pursuing a producer role because I enjoyed managing the team and keeping a shared vision for what we were creating. However, in my second year, I had the opportunity to explore the level design role, and I haven't looked back since.
In my third year. I worked part time on two projects a game and a film. I had the opportunity to collaborate part-time with Creative Business on a film creation at our Extended Reality stage, reigniting my passion for producing and allowing me to take on the producer role while also creating environments in Unreal.
As I continued to work on The Archipelago Promise game project where I fulfilled the role of part time level designer

Growing up, I spent many evenings playing games with my family, and it was during these times that I realized that I could pursue a career that combined my love of technicality with a focus on fun.
This realization led me down a path of exploration, and I eventually found my calling in a career that emphasizes both practicality and creativity. With a background in civil engineering and a love for gaming,
