About me

I'm Joseph Mackle and I'm a Game Design Student

Abertay University graduate in Game Design and Production. Before coming to Abertay University I attended Southern Regional College where I studied Games, Animation and VFX for 2 years, completing it in June of 2019.

I have had a passion for games for many years and always wanted to understand the inner workings of the games industry, so I decided to take the path leading to where I currently am.

Over the past 4 years at Abertay University I have developed my skillset in communication, critical thinking, project management, problem solving, attention to detail and experience and developed a strong sense of determination and resilience. Strong team and innovation skills developed through degree and external projects. I have a great passion for gaming and game design. I now wish to pursue a career in the Games Industry in a QA position and ultimately a UX/UI Designer role.
