Student Experience: Jimmy Delaney

Jimmy’s love of video games began when he was a child when he played the SNES with his brothers. He’s continued playing video games and began to turn it into a career when he enrolled at the University of Texas in Austin, where he got a Management Information Systems degree. 

Upon graduation, he decided he wanted to try video games as a career choice. Jimmy then signed up for the game programming track. In the program, Jimmy got experience with UDK and Unity game engines, learned C#, JavaScript, C++, Flash, Actionscript, Java, Photoshop and Objective C. In his project development classes, Jimmy worked on a Starfox clone, The Estate in UDK and Urban Zombie in Unity. He worked on mobile games and apps for various companies for years. He now works for RoboKind on apps and robots to help teach autistic children.

“The best part of my experience at Dallas College was to meet competent teachers who promote investigation, which is an important skill to develop since technology changes every second. Most of the knowledge I got at Dallas College I’ve applied at my work. It was a good starting point.”

“After two years of college, and several majors later, Kevin stumbled into Richland's Interactive Simulation and Game Technology program. He had never taken an art class before, so he was surprised to find his niche in Character Sculpting, although that didn't stop him from learning how to code in C# Unity as well as becoming a valuable asset on the program's Level Design teams.”
