About Me

I’m Brandon McCarthy, a senior at the University of Utah studying computer science with an emphasis in games. My grandpa got me interested in computers and PC games from a young age, and I have expanded on that interest in programming, competitive gaming, and content creation. My goal as a developer, creator, and person is to inspire others. I want to give people the awe and excitement that my favorite pieces of content give me by delivering an incredible and unique experience through my work.

My hobbies include working out, reading, and spending time with loved ones.
