Born and raised in the Silicon Valley, I previously studied towards a degree in Computer Science. I enjoyed the programming aspect, and I decided that I could utilize the skills gained from this course study to pursue a degree in gameplay programming. While looking for new opportunities, I discovered Video Game Programming at the Academy of Art University. This seemed like the perfect fit -where I could merge my enjoyment of programming with a passion for video games! Over the past 4 years, I have gained proficiencies developing, implementing, and debugging game play systems using C++, Python, and LUA. As well as experience working with Unreal Engine 4 and Unity game engines. Now that I’ve graduated with my Bachelor’s of Science, I am looking for a Jr. Engineer position. My portfolio is available for view on github.com/apeneueta.
