About Me
It’s-a Me, Mario!
I'm a game developer who enjoys developing and playing video games equally. I've loved video games since the first time I played them at my cousin's old SNES. Now my goal is to capture my thoughts and essence in the video games that I develop, hoping that people can enjoy them as much as I do.
I'm a graduate student of the Master's Degree in Advanced Programming for AAA Video Games at UPC School, previously I obtained the Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC).
Currently I am a Gameplay Programmer at Deck 13, where I contribute to Atlas Fallen.
