Biography

Hi, I'm Runyi Guo, and recently graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Game Programming at LaSalle College. My earliest memory related to computers was playing Dr. Stanley's House during my primary school computer class. Since then, I have been interested in computers. I eventually got into digital art and graphic design. My first work experience was a contract to create images of pre- and post- surgery instructions for use on a WeChat page. I really enjoyed the process, and I started exploring digital creation as a career path. This led me into enrolling in the Bachelor’s in Game Programming degree at LaSalle. It was challenging, but I learned a lot about software developing and creating my own games. What I enjoyed the most was the satisfaction of real-time feedback. I often have to learn new techniques and algorithms, implement them in software, and debug and problem solve. This requires me to focus on one issue at a time, and the experience give me a strong sense of accomplishment.
