I am currently studying Computer Science, Biology and Physics A Levels at Parmiters School.

I created SuperMelon Studios in January of 2019 to build a brand of Roblox experiences that are fun and that push the imagination and creativity of players.

I was personally invited by CREY Games to copenhagen to give a talk about my experience as a game developer, the features of a great game creation platform and to give my own feedback and impressions on their product; a game development engine designed to make user generated games as easy as possible to make with completely codeless game creation and a stunning engine. In this talk, I discussed why and how Roblox as a platform has become so big, what makes a user generated games platform successful, my experience with Roblox and game development, and how I became involved with the Roblox development community. The experience, knowledge and connections I gained from this talk were invaluable, talking with extremely influential people about the new world of user generated games platforms and game development in general.

In mid 2015, I began developing experiences on Roblox, since then my games have gained over 30 million total plays. Through developing these experiences as a sole developer I learnt to appreciate and understand every part of creating a successful, fun game that keeps players coming back, and I use this experience today when managing teams of developers for upcoming projects. As one of the top 100 developers on Roblox, I am invited to and attend the Roblox Developer Conference in San Francisco each year, and have been invited partner with Roblox in their licensing program, early access program and global localisation efforts. I continue to develop and improve my Roblox experiences, mainly as a programmer and project lead using the complete understanding I hold of Roblox Lua and game design.
