Game Designer  / Digital Media / Screenwriting 

About Me

I'm currently a Master student for Game Design and Digital Media at Northeastern University in Boston. My Bachelor was Marketing Management in Lisbon, Portugal. After graduating I spent a year doing two internships, one for Immochan (one of Europe's leading retail real estate and shopping centre companies) and another one for Gulbenkian Foundation (one of the biggest cultural centers in Portugal). While I worked as a Digital Marketing Intern I took some Web Design classes which revealed my love for programming. I came to Northeastern as a Digital Media Management student, but after a semester I decided to change my major to Game Design. I've since loved learning coding, studying game theory & concepts, learn pixel art and animation and found a purpose for one of my biggest passions - screenwriting. I enjoy writing scripts but I would say one of my future goals is to become a video game writer. Since I started my Masters, I was lucky to learn a little bit of each step of game development, this combined with my management and marketing skills gave me the resources needed to become a Video Game Producer which is what I've been doing in most of my projects. Video game producing entails several of the fundamentals I've leaned in my bachelor combined with my knowledge and experience on each part of game creation.
