I’m from California.

My favorite game as a kid was Command &

Conquer.

I love Dynasty modes

and campaignmodes inGames.

I started to skiing first then I switched to snowboarding. I lovedevery moment I spent on/at the mountain.

Can you imagine leaving something like this at homewhile you go to school?

A favorite thing of mine was riding the ski lift. The view was always 360 degrees of beauty especially on long rides.

Everyday I got dozens of views while snowboarding.

Learning how to ski was hard, but learning how to snowboard was fun. It’s expressive.

Back in the city I would start to go see the beautifulviews of the city because I was in love.

The first time I saw this happen in person I was finally movedmost by nature.

I feel in love with environments. The games wherethe worlds are far and few are real cool to me.

These worlds have given me so much to dream aboutand look forward to.

Video games have so many moving parts within them, but stillhave a clear cut #1.

Maybe it’s a guy thing, but it will never get old. A big TV & the next best game.

I want to create the city or atmosphere where YOU doEVERYTHING.

I’ve seen so much and admired even more. The small thingslately have been like candy to me.

Seeing logos and other replica artwork in games isinspirational to me.

The line between real and a video gamedoesn’t exist anymore.

Anything counts now so I practice anything Isee. Nothing is off limits.

When a game is being made, you start fromzero.

I put myself in a world where there is somethingto learn from in every direction.

I will wait my turn and the day I get my chance I will make sure it isn’t wasted.

I’m not average, I’m me. Being me is fun becauseI do everything everybody else doesn’t do.
