Resume
Jesse Emmoth
Programmer / Sound designer
Hi! I’m a programming student at The Game Assembly specializing in audio and looking for an internship in the industry. Before attending TGA I worked in the music business as a jazz musician, composer and music producer where I learned a lot about group dynamics, time management and team work which I’ve found is also valuable in the game industry.
During my time at TGA I’ve tried to touch on all roles as a programmer including audio, graphics, threading and engine design. I’ve also been diving more into creating sound effects and music for our games from scratch.
I’m specializing in audio programming where I’m creating an editor for audio as well as a framework for handling audio that can be used in a custom engine. I have good experience in C++ and C and some knowledge about writing code in C# and Java.
In my spare time I like to cook italian foods, play tennis or spend time in my studio with a soldering iron repairing some old recording gear while listening to some nerdy podcast!
