Carlos's Story

My passion is game design.

Since I was little, I would play video games with my younger brother. It was the way that he and I bonded together when we were young. Now, I use video games to bond with my little sister. I am also very fascinated with technology and how it functions. As a result, I started seeking knowledge about technology. This is why I am passionate about video game designing, because I would like to create the memories that I had as a child for more people. I am also creative, so I sometimes find myself thinking about different worlds with heroes and villains. I am passionate about game design because of my creativity and childhood.

Attending iD Tech Camps will help me pursue me passion for game design by showing me how game design is like. This will help me see how game developers create their worlds and make memories. The iD Tech Camps seem to be one of the best ways I can pursue my passion for game design. These Camps will teach me about how game designing works and how the technology used during game designing is used. I sincerely hope to be chosen for a iD tech since it will help me learn about what I have become so passionate about.

A Note from Ms. Hanley, Carlos's Teacher

Carlos is an EXCELLENT candidate for the iD Tech Camps! He geeks out (in the best, coolest way possible: authentically and with joy!) over tech, coding, games, and learning in general. He is a great partner in groups, a clear presenter, and highly motivated. He is the type of learner a teacher wants in a classroom, but more importantly, the type of friendly neighbor that a student wants next to them. the iD Tech program sounds designed for Carlos - he will dig in deeply to coding, robotics, design, and the complex world behind gaming. I think Carlos would benefit from the iDTech Camp through the opportunity to have access and guidance in his passion - he currently doesn't have either, but has figured out how to get himself exposed as much as possible. With trained professionals and the accessibility to coding/gaming instruction, Carlos will gain deeper insight into his passions, a stronger skill set that he will no doubt use in college and beyond, and I hope a community of other passionate gamers.
