Game Design Resume
Summary
I am a student at Full Sail University working to get my Bachelor's Degree in Game Design. I was Honorable discharged from the Marine Corps in 2019, my MOS was a Transportation Operator (3531). I have a full class A CDL with no restrictions. After the military I immediately went to Lineman College in Denton, Texas, schooling was about 7 months during which I attended the Crane Operator class. After graduating I worked for a line company for over 2 years.
I learned how to terminate and set underground equipment such as transformers, switch boxes, and pedestals. I have some experience operating a backhoe and mini X. I have minimal experience with hot work, I have been around it but do not have a lot of personal experience. I also worked for an insulation company. I was an assembler, I built insulation spray machines that were run off of 700cc motors. I currently am a full-time student looking for work.
During my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family. I enjoy going to the gym every day if I can. I enjoy going to the shooting range, I am a huge gun and weapon enthusiast. Last but not least I love playing video games with my friends.
