I have grown up around the central valley my entire life. But unlike most of my peers, I steered away from agriculture and turned towards technology related matters. In 2007, I graduated with a Bachelor's Degree in Communications with a minor in Journalism. I've always been interested in writing about computers, electronics, or video games by analyzing them and writing my thoughts and opinions publicly. I know that a lot of people out there have some trouble learning new technologies, and I would like to help them understand this field better.
I have been an avid video game player since I was about four, and I continue to play games to this day. I own many game consoles, both classic and next generation, and I also play games for the PC. I review games based on their content, game play, and ability to be fun. After all, why else would we play games?
I'm looking forward to contributing insightful articles to this site and I hope all of you enjoy reading my work.
