PERSONAL STATEMENT

I am a dedicated and highly focused programmer, with high technical skills, and a passion for games programming. My career objective is to get into A.I, as this is the area of games that interests me the most; however I have an appreciation for all facets of game programming.  I’m eager to develop any area of any genre of game, to gain greater understanding and experience of industrial development.
I have good communication skills, a jolly personality and I’m a flexible and positive team player. I look forward to an interview, so I can express in person that I have a lot of enthusiasm, commitment and ability I can bring to your games development company.
