Hi again For a long time throughout my years befo Hi again

For a long time throughout my years before and during high school, I really internalized my love for video games and video game design, and I felt like it was something that was considering nerdy, not serious, and just plain laughable.

It was only until NYU that I really was able to come out of my shell and just accept myself for the weird, quirky and wack(!) person that I am in general. I think that my love for video games truly shows a little bit of who I am and who I consider to be role models for myself. 

I definitely think one of my favorite content creators and role models is NakeyJakey. He’s a YouTuber who got popular off talking about just one thing that he loves: video games. Jakey is able to communicate his passion and his adoration for video games and his weird 2000s childhood (which honestly, I think I had a weird childhood as well LOL). Jakey comes across so earnestly and passionate in his laid back, humorous videos on game design with his iconic yoga ball, and he’s someone that I look to when I feel insecure or nervous about who I am and what I love.

Although I’m primarily interested in working in UI/UX, I don’t forget about what I loved so much in the first place: video games. I love the medium and its ability to convey emotions, stories and moods that I don’t think any other medium can do. 

I still enjoy watching speedrun and occasionally playing old PS2 games like Jak and Daxter. I love the composition, style and grandeur of video game soundtracks and composers like Yoko Shimomura and Keiichi Okabe, who respectively composed the Kingdom Hearts series and Nier: Automata. I love the story, the fantasy and the power behind stories like Automata or Journey. None of these things are replaceable, and I love them to death, and that’s who I am.
