About

Hello! My name is Ray, and I'm a Computer Scientist and Game Designer. Growing up playing games like Pokemon, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater, and Sonic, I remember the excitement I felt at the loading screen, knowing I was about to access an experience that was only accessible through video games. These worlds were an escape and a lifelong inspiration, and I knew that one day I wanted to create experiences that would not only create fun for other players, but also bring them together. There's nothing like the magic of playing a game with someone, and working together to achieve a goal or tell a story. I want to create spaces for that magic to occur in the world, so I chose to pursue an education in game design.

In my free time, I enjoy playing Dungeons and Dragons with my friends, solving puzzles, writing stories, rooting for the Hawaii Fridays, and fishing in Stardew Valley. I also love music, live theater, movies, and baseball, and I strive to integrate my passions into the games I create!

I want to develop new and exciting ways to tell stories in games, and create adventures that leave an impact on their audiences. I love collaboration in both playing and creating games, and I look forward to potentially working together to explore the future of game design!
