Who Am I?

Hey I’m Neri, a game developer that’s been laser-focused on entering the games & interactive media industry since the 8th grade. Since then I’ve gone from President of the Game and Simulation club in Highschool to graduating with a M.S. in Interactive Entertainment from FIEA at UCF.

While preparing to enter the industry I’ve had the privilege to lead several teams and work on projects ranging from traditional entertainment-focused action games to naval navigation training simulators to scientific education VR experiences.

Now that I’ve entered the industry, I’m determined to contribute to shaping it into a healthier form founded on strong production practices and broader subject horizons.

One of my true passions is to help unite the Orlando games & interactive media community and encourage it grow into the space it truly can be. Most recently I’ve formed my own company to experiment with small projects, created OGID: a community discord for Orlando Games & Interactive Developers, and joined EA Orlando as a Technical Designer.
