About

Hey guys,
My name is Rigoberto Carmona Jr, I am from Grand Rapids, Michigan 49503. As a young infant all I wanted to be when I grew up was to become a policeman, because at a young age I always had a big heart to ensure that my community was safe from people who want to harm it. Also policemen where somewhat of a role model to me. But when I entered into middle school my mind transitioned to more of an artist or author because many people thought that I was an amazing sketch artist, and that I always had a story behind all of that sketches I drew. Many people thought that because I was good at making up stories from the top of my head is because I liked to lie to everyone, but I didn't let that bother me. Soon I changed my career choice from artist/author to Game Designer/Computer Engineer when I started my sophomore year in high school, because I have always enjoyed playing games since I was an adolescent and I always like coming up with new ideas on how some gaming companies could improve their games or what I would like to see them add to next year's game. But most because I have always seen video games as not only an important part of my life, but of how it is also a part of my personality.

Career goal

Graduate school interests

In grad school I was super interested in being a police, because I was like any other kid. I wanted to help out everyone who would need me and help to get rid of violence in my community. Soon I changed my mind to wanting to be an artist or author because many people thought that I was really good at making up stories, but others thought of it as an excuse to lie all the time. But since my sophomore year in high school I wanted and still want to be a game Designer or computer engineer.
