Luca Pavone

I have recently received my Degree as Bachelor of Interactive Entertainment, with a major in Games design from Qantm College.

I am, and have always been very passionate about Game Creation; its always been my dream to work in the Game Design field.

I have a well-developed understanding of the complexities of game design, and the ability to work in a variety of genres and themes. I'm also willing and able to learn new things, since adaptability is an advantage in any situation.
