The Full Story
About
I have completed two internship experiences and have also worked in a studio environment. Between 2024 and 2026, I completed two internships: one with NetEase as a Level & Monster Designer for three months, and another with 4399 Network as a Level & Gameplay Designer for two months.
​
During my studies in the MEAE program at the University of Utah, I also founded a small indie studio, Abyss Game, to develop original game projects. Our current project is being developed by a team of around 10 students from NYU and the University of Utah MEAE program.
