About Me

JStringer Headshot

I'm an MSc graduate that studied Creative Technologies at Nottingham Trent University. This was following on from my 3-year BSc in Games Production. I've felt passionate about both games and computers since an early age and this fascination has led me to explore academic and career opportunities related to the two throughout my life. My interest in games and the necessary technical & artistic skills required to create them has pushed me to further develop my own personal skills in order to achieve my goal of one day contributing to critically acclaimed games enjoyed world wide.
