Me posing with my Lead Programmer for Sultans of Scratch, WALL-E

I am John Erickson, Video Game Programmer and Enthusiast, and all around nice guy. I’ve been programming since High School, starting with C and C++ and learning other languages after. I received a Bachelors of Science in Computer Science with Honors Recognition and minors in Japanese and Mathematics from Colorado State University, and am currently studying game programming for a Masters of Science in Interactive Entertainment from the University of Central Florida’s FIEA program.

I am a highly team-motivated individual, and excel in group environments. Because of my goals of personal advancement of knowledge, I have an interest in all areas of game programming. This allows me to be flexible and effective on a group, as I can adapt to new tasks quickly. I believe in leadership through example, and strive to inspire others through hard work and determination.
