About Me
In a world inundated with brilliant stories there's no shortage of formats to digest them. I discovered at a young age that video games can and do find a way to bridge the difference between seeing them and experiencing them.
About Me
From the start of my studies at AIE I wrestled with the conundrum of what separates a student from a professional.
When will my work look more than just "good for a student"?
I hold my work to a high standard. I accept nothing less than that which I would find acceptable as a consumer and an appreciator of passion. To that end I've found a major factor in brilliance to be in the details. My approach is not to glaze over the finer aspects of production, instead to exercise patience and not stop until you find a solution.
There is no such thing as an insurmountable problem, there is ALWAYS a solution.
As a final factor and no less important than the former is to trust your team. It's a mistake to assume that you alone are the sole talent on the team. I've witnessed people make the mistake of taking too much onto themselves by not trusting the skills of their colleagues and ultimately falling short, being too caught up in the worry that they will be let down. Placing trust in someone is a risk, I understand that, that they can fall short of expectation, but you will never get true passion from someone and see the best version of them and their work if they don't feel appreciated or important.
Everyone has something to offer, a good leader finds the strengths in everyone, and above all demonstrates the qualities they seek from others. One day I hope to inspire and lead projects of my own and am always striving to learn what it means to be trustworthy and a good leader.
