About Me
Hi, my name is Westin Baker I am currently working as a Game Design Instructor for STEM Forged teaching Game Design. My expertise is in Level Design and Game Design.
I graduated from Purdue University with a Bachelor’s of Science in Computer Graphics Technology studying Game Design and Development. I have worked on numerous projects utilizing different game engines such as Unreal Engine 4 and 5 and Unity. Through my academic experience I’ve learned proper methodologies for creating games through collaboration and documentation, and brought games through the game design pipeline from concept to finalization. Through my time learning, I’ve spent a considerable amount of time gaining knowledge about Game Design and becoming proficient at utilizing Game Engines and learning visual scripting and object-oriented programming.
I believe my strong academic background, creativity, and knowledge combined with my collaboration and communication skills built through my time as an instructor would make me a valuable asset to any team.
