As a college student, I am only in the beginning of the adult life, and this article shows some of the important things that we all need to take into consideration when opportunities come up such as our passions. You today, work in something that you have loved, and probably never thought you would be working at BioWare 10 years ago. Your story is something that I will remember in the future, because we never really know what is going to happen in the future, but if it's something you love, then pursue it :) A nice example of an interesting life experience.

I can't imagine how you spend years just doing logos, I mean, its not like a logo would be a one month project ... And your job is called 'Designer'? I thought that people who draw the whole textures, models, etc. would be called Artist, and Designers are those that say were to go with that content (build level, balance weapons, ...). There am I learning that I know nothing. Greg Interesting. I can’t imagine how you spend years just doing logos, I mean, its not like a logo would be a one month project …

Well, the BioWare part, not the mind-numbing nowhere job part. I'm already living that. So thank you for reminding me that there's still hope. Gives me renewed resolve to break into the gaming industry. Looking forward to hearing the rest of the story; keep the tips coming. Wow, you are living my dream.

I am not a designer by any means, but I know the difficulty in pushing through to finally land a job you can love and be passionate about. I am currently on that track. I am finishing my MBA and I have always wanted to work in the gaming industry for a major producer. I would love the opportunity to talk to you sometime about your experience in breaking through to get into the gaming industry. Take care and thanks for writing an engaging blog post about this.
