Keep going, research and explore as many things related to your craft as you can. Even now, the learning never stops.

Always go to class. Never get set on an idea because it will always grow and change and that will be a better idea. Always discuss your idea with others, and expand your horizons. Document your work/process as you go.

Media Design School was the best decision I ever made.

Have passion. It’s becoming one of those careers that everyone wants to give a go, but the important thing is to love what you’re doing, because anyone can learn the skills.

The best advice I can give anyone studying to pursue a career in the games industry is to get involved in community events.

The most valuable would be how to cope and manage your work under pressure.
