About Me
Hello there. I'm Matthew and I'm a programmer with a primary focus and passion for games.
I have a strong interest in Systems Development and Artificial Intelligence, which can be seen within my Portfolio projects. My game development experience has been explored through C++, C#, Unreal Engine, and Unity, and have used Git for version control to protect and manage my work.
