About Me

Hey, I'm Sam, a Game Developer studying at Bradley University. 

I'm currently on track to graduate in the spring of 2027 with a major in Game Design and a minor in Organizational Communication. I'll be studying abroad in the Netherlands this spring in 2026!

How I got into games

I realized I had a passion for Level Design by playing titles with level editors like Mario Maker. I love using a simple set of tools to push the boundaries of what people think is possible within those restrictions.

I've always known I wanted to go into a creative career and I got into games by playing indie titles that use games as an artform to connect with and inspire their audiences. 

Some games that inspire me are Celeste, Outer Wilds, Animal Well, and Mario Galaxy.

Bradley University

During my time at Bradley I've worked as a game Designer, Programmer, and Producer, on many team projects. 

Outside of my own classes I also worked as a Teaching Assistant to teach C# Programming and Unity Development skills to fellow students.

In my free time

I like to draw, go on walks, and play bass in Bradley's Hilltop Jazz Combo.
