As an Interactive Game Studies major it was difficult to relate to either one of the alumni but Camille Dollins was the one I could closely relate. She mentioned that she was an overachiever when it came to something she was passionate about, in her case graphic design. I have yet to take any game studio courses but I believe that I will be the same way when working on a project. For example, in high school, I had a project for my computer class where we had to create a house out of shapes only using excel. As oppose to creating a house, I decided to create a castle, I was enjoying the project so much that I wanted a challenge.
Today, the most valuable piece of advice I received was “It is okay to ask for help, that is how we grow as human beings. We merge our ideas and opinions to create something spectacular.” This is extremely inspiring, especially considering I do not like asking for help because I wish to complete tasks on my own without any assistance.
