I am double majoring in IMGD (Visual Art) and Humanities and Arts (Music). I have always enjoyed both art and music, and the idea of being able to pursue both of them through game design has always been a strong passion of mine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In high school, I focused more on traditional art courses while exploring digital art independently. When I came to WPI, I transitioned to taking digital art courses, taking classes covering such things as 2D animation, digital painting, concept art, and 3D modeling. I\u2019m interested in continuing to learn about the game design process and experimenting with different mediums and art styles. Most of my experience has been in creating game documents and standalone art, without much opportunity to combine them into a full project. My MQP, <em>Wedding Bells<\/em>, has given me more experience in bringing everything together, but that game is made up of 2D assets, so I am excited to get some more 3D experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some the games I find artistically inspiring are: <em>Nier: Automata<\/em>, <em>Cult of the Lamb<\/em>, and <em>Danganronpa<\/em>.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure
