______________________________________________________________________________________
My primary roles in all these projects was on the coding/scripting and level design ends. I personally made none of the art/sounds/3D models as they were either made by my team members or downloaded from third-party sources. One slight exception is on Hospital Simulator in which the voice lines were recorded by myself and a friend and processed by myself. In team projects, I served as the lead or sole programmer for the group. My work included the systems design, UI, AI, player functionality, etc.
