Role
Game Design Intern
Venture Valley was my first Design Internship in the Game Industry, though my role in it was an admittedly odd one. Working for the Singleton Foundation as an intern, my brain was put to use primarily for R&D, QA, and ideation. Singleton had a unique mission in that they wanted to create a competitive educational game, and I did my best in my time there to define the pillars and expectations of what such a game would need. My time there definitely gave me some serious experience in communication and documentation skills.
