My name is Jeremy Burau. I am 24 years old, and graduated May 2010 from Champlain College in Burlington, Vermont. Ever since I can remember, I've had a strong interest in learning how video games work. My career at Champlain has not only taught me how to make a great game, but how to apply what I've learned in a professional setting.
The best thing about my education is that I've learned more than just my own discipline, game programming. A well-rounded curriculum with liberal arts classes as well as courses in other areas of game development, like design or art, have been extremely helpful; providing a richer experience and better preparedness for the gaming industry. A variety of programming classes such as C++, graphics, AI, and data structures has allowed me to discover my favorite parts of programming, while still giving me an idea of how the different aspects work in game production.
