Summary

My interest in the gaming world came from being exposed to games from a young age. My first console game was a Lion King game on the Leap Frog TV console for children. From here my interest grew through most of the consoles on the market. I started creating my own art from imagination and the games I was playing on the PS2 and xBox. At school I excelled within Art class and the desire to use my art within the gaming industry lead me to college and ultimately university where I am currently coming to the final days of a Masters Degree in games design.

Work history

Facilities Maintenance Assistant

JCleanScotland Ltd

Ensuring high levels of cleanliness and presentation of various Air BnB properties across the Glasgow area. This would include deep cleaning of kitchens, bathrooms and living spaces within the clients rental properties on a fortnightly basis but also general inspection and cleaning upon a guests departure to make ready for the next guest. This is an "as required role" which I have been doing throughout this last year while at university and sees me traveling to and from Glasgow regularly. In order to maintain a hosts review rating, a high level of attention to detail and pride of work is required when carrying out these duties.
