Bio
Alisia Martinez
Daniel is a fantastic and effective communicator, leader, and teammate. Always thinking of the end product and how we can get there, he spent hours of his own time to ensure the product was better than the day before. He is extremely dependable and has the experience knowing what needs to get done first. I would be lucky to work on another project with Daniel!
Allyssa De La Torre
Daniel has always taken the initiative to better himself in order to create positive change around him. I've known and worked with Daniel for three years, and he has consistently gone out of his way to seek out more opportunities to accomplish these ends. As the Vice President and Design Lead of our student-run mock studio at UCSC, Daniel has helped to shape an inclusive environment for students interested in game development. By immersing himself in his career interests, he has rapidly learned how to design engaging and innovative gameplay experiences. He encourages others to step outside their comfort zone and continues to be an excellent mentor for many others who are eager to learn about what it takes to design and produce a game.
