It also gave him a chance to get to know Unity3D and love just how friendly UI is and how fast the workflow is. The first video game he ever played was "Super Mario Bros." and he has loved playing games ever since. He believes that being an Architect is also his strength; it supports his concepts and ideas of how the real world could apply in the virtual world. In his spare time, he loves to work on 3D software, such as Zbrush, or 3D Studio Max. He also loves painting and drawing. Currently, he's trying to marry his architectural and 3D skills with his game development skills to create the next innovation game.
