About Me
Hi! I am Ricardo
I’m Ricardo, a passionate game designer dedicated to creating immersive worlds. Throughout my career, I’ve explored various fields that have shaped my path. As an architect, I worked on diverse projects from conception to construction, learning to navigate client changes even during the build phase. Later, as a mobile developer, I collaborated with talented teams to create user-friendly apps, mastering the processes for delivering applications on both iOS and Android while honing my team management skills.
In 2019, I discovered the role of Game Designer and realized it was my true calling. I bring a wealth of creativity and problem-solving skills, having worked across different disciplines and effectively collaborating with diverse teams. My background in music gives me insight into its impact on projects, while my architectural knowledge enhances my understanding of space and design. I’m always engaged with industry trends, ensuring I know what the market needs and how to deliver exceptional results.
