Have you had any internships?
I had the privilege of interning at GameTheory where I was a Game Art intern. When I started, I was just getting out of my first year at Champlain so I was really intimidated. I mostly worked in Photoshop making 2-D assets for mobile games. I was actually the only art intern, so I had a lot of control over what the games ended up looking like. It was a really big responsibility.
Can you tell us about the professors in the Game Studio?
Our professors are all really approachable. They’re open about their office hours¡ªif you go meet with them, they’re 100% there, willing and ready to help you. That’s why they’re there. I once had a meeting with a professor and he was in tears because he cared so much about helping students learn and grow, cultivating the next generation of game developers. That really touched me.
What do you think of the Victorian-era residence halls?
I absolutely think that living on campus is integral to connecting with your fellow students. The people that I’ve met in my residence halls have really helped me connect with the Champlain community.
You live with these people, you’re interacting with them all the time, you’re learning about their life and then all of a sudden, you’re meeting their friends on campus. You’re expanding your social network just by living with new people.
