About Me
Hi, I'm Ben Monday. I'm an aspiring software and game developer who is always interested in strengthening my skills and creating things that I am passionate about.
I became interested in programming around the 6th grade, when I realized that
it was possible to make computers do things I came up with on my own.
My first introduction to programming was through a robotics club, where I learned to program our robot
to be controlled and perform tasks autonomously. From there, I got involved in summer camps
and other classes whenever the opportunity arose to learn more. This led to me pursuing and obtaining
a degree in Computer Science from the University of Nebraska at Omaha, where I graduated in Spring of
2024.
Games were always a favorite pastime of mine, and as I got older I started to
develop a greater appreciation for how they were made. I wanted to understand
what made me enjoy them as an art form so much. This led me to begin developing games of my own, a hobby
I still enjoy and hope to turn into my career!
