Crafting Virtual Realities

My name is Joshua Moon, I am 20 and have always lived in Modesto California. My mother is from Panama and my father was born and raised here just like me. I have one full sibling but no half or adopted siblings and I have a fluffy golden retriever named Rocky who, as good as he is, is also a hyperactive idiot. For most of my life I wasn't exactly sure what I wanted to do but when I was younger I decided that, if I had to have a dream job it would be making video games, which wasn't exactly my first choice but being an influencer isn't exactly something that most people achieve well. This is technically the start of my 4th year of college as I made mistakes in earlier semesters and fell majorly behind. 

 

In terms of what inspires me, there is a large list, I am a big fan of video games, anime, mythology, religion, etc. My areas of interest include animation, art, 3d sculpting and modeling, pretty much anything I can have fun with while doing work on a computer. Things like anime and religion influence how I feel about these things a lot because they introduce me to concepts that are new to me but have been ancient history buried in religions, it makes me think "what can i come up with that makes me feel the same feelings that I'm feeling now" it pushes my creative drive.

 

I have quite the list of weaknesses and strengths. I am a fast worker who can recognize how to do something from a class pretty easily but if it doesn't go as planned the first time I get easily frustrated. I have pretty good knowledge about using Maya, Photoshop, Blender, Unreal Engine, even some more niche programs like Block bench but a lot of times after not using those I forgot how they function pretty quickly and thus have to be reminded when I start it up again. In terms of people skills I can make friends pretty quickly with someone but I am not the best at keeping the friendship with them going outside of a class or convenient setting as rough as that may sound. 

As I said before my ideal job is being an influencer, I think I have always had that itch to entertain for a job but when push comes to shove I would rather have something like making video games which would likely be a good bit more stable for me and I could be an influencer on the side perhaps.

What makes me different from others? Despite what flaws I might have, every single second of every day my brain is coming up with news ideas for games, stories, shows, even just fun new ideas to do with friends, my whole life is filled with constant ideas about what I think would be entertaining and it has never stopped wondering. If you want a random concept for a world, a power system, a combat mechanic, I can think up one rather quickly.
