“After working in the health and fitness industry for such a long time, I noticed I wasn’t coming home feeling fulfilled. I wanted to be involved with something more creative and fun. I have been a gamer for as long as I can remember, so I decided to pursue a career in gaming. I took a 3D animation class in the Summer and fell in love with it instantly. My experience in movement science was a tremendous help in the transition to animating bipedal characters.

“Richland allowed me to explore a lot of avenues of game design. I started with an interest in programming and level design, but I eventually decided it wasn’t for me. Then I tried modeling and storyboarding, but I eventually decided to stick with 3D animation. I was able to use my prior management experience on Fowl Magic in a project development class and it remains a strong portfolio piece.

“I would like to own my own studio in 10 years. Also, being able to animate for The Last of Us 2 would be a dream, or something related to DC or Marvel movies as well.”

“Some people in non-STEM majors reject the idea of being in a STEM organization because they feel they aren’t smart enough or talented enough. I’m not the smartest or most talented person in the room, but I’m curious, and that’s more than enough. Don't let your own sense of limitation stop you.”

“Now that I look at it, it was the best decision I ever made. The teachers realized I had a lot of passion for it, and they taught me to understand how things work.”

Dallas College student Bachelor’s Degree of Applied Technology
“After being homeschooled and graduating high school with dual credit prerequisites already done, I went straight into the workforce, no intention of getting a degree. I worked in a warehouse for about a year and thought about going into welding, but I injured my back. ... At that point I decided to go for my associate degree, which I accomplished, and now I’m working to get my bachelor’s degree of applied technology in software development this fall. I love that I can do it 100% online because I also take care of my family every day.”
