My name is Thomas Mahoney (he/him), I'm 22 years old, and I'm excited to be a part of the game industry. Although a huge passion of mine is Game Design, quite a bit of my time is taken up by playing games (tabletop or otherwise), writing, cooking, or stargazing. As you may have noticed from my portfolio, I've attempted to diversify my interests as best as possible, because I believe that an effective game designer is one who understands most aspects of the field, even if they don't necessarily specialize in all of them. Not so that they can do each and every job themselves, but instead for the purpose of communicating effectively with other teams- connecting all ideas seamlessly and creating a truly fun, unique experience for the player. Thank you for looking into my portfolio, and I appreciate the time you've taken to learn more about me!
