ABOUT ME
Hey! I'm Zach, a graduate games programmer, looking to find my place in the games industry and develop what I am passionate about.
This site showcases a couple of my programming projects, my current CV, and a few ways you can contact me.
EDUCATION
I have recently graduated with First Class Honours in BSc (Hons) Computer Games Technology from the University of Portsmouth. I completed various projects as part of my studies, in which I showed a keen interest in virtual reality and artificial intelligence.
These projects helped me develop programming skills in Unity and Unreal game engines. For example, I used finite state machines and behaviour trees, alongside perception systems in my AI projects.
Look at the 'Projects' page for more info on my skills.
HOBBIES AND INTERESTS
As expected, I enjoy playing games. Some of my current favourites are Overwatch 2, Marvel's Spiderman and Planet Coaster.
I also try to get out and photograph wildlife and animals when I can, especially at my local zoo. I put my favourites on my photography Instagram account: '@zachbeachphotography'.
Lastly, I enjoy watching musicals and going to theme parks when I can.
