Hi there! I’m Elissa, a current student of the Game Design program at Pratt Institute. Previously, I graduated from McGill University where I received a B.A. in Philosophy & East Asian Studies. When I’m not racking my brain to fix my compilation errors in Unity, you can find me looking for the meaning of life, or at least the meaning behind Japanese particles!
As a game designer, 3D artist, and illustrator, I’m passionate about using my personal and cultural identity to create experiences that others can connect with.
My ultimate goal in life is to create something that can move people. Whether it’s the warm fuzzy feeling I get when I play my favorites like Animal Crossing: New Horizons and Cookie Run: Kingdom or pool of tears I shed at #hurt/comfort, I’ll know I’ve made it when I make others feel the same.
If you have any questions or would just simply like a little chat, feel free to reach out!
