Hi! I'm Carter Burkett
I'm a student Game Designer and Developer. I'm currently working towards a B.A. in Animation and Games at the University of Texas at Dallas, and an A.S. in Game Programming at Dallas College.
My Road Here
I began in school at the University of Arizona in 2017 but decided to withdraw at the start of the pandemic. In 2021 I returned to school and decided to study programming and game design at Dallas College and eventually transferred to UTD to continue studying Game Design. I hope to pursue a Master's after my undergraduate career.
Why I'm studying Game Design
Because I love Games! Specifically, Game Programming but I love to work with modelling and surfacing software, and enjoy drawing and animating in my free time.
