I'm Jing Wang and I'm a senior student in the SDE program. I'm hoping to graduate in the next semester, however, hope is not a method. Since there are so many aspects in the gaming industry, my main focus is on programming.

My favorite video games are the "Sangokushi" series from 1 to 11 so far. ([|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sangokushi_(video_game_series])) The "Sangokushi" games are made by KOEI, a Japanese game company that makes lots of historical based games. These games are turn based, and each turn you have limited amount of actions according to the size of your territory. You have to make decisions on how you want to develop your population, economy and defence. The goal of these games is to reunite the divided country. To do that, you need to attack and occupy cities controlled by your neighbors when you can. However, when you do that, you have to consider your risks of being attacked by other forces. I have learned a lot about people who lived in the period of history and what they did back in that time. I have also learned about resources distribution and management. You have to think critically to be able to win the game.

My career goal for now is to find a job that's programming based. I would love to try game companies such as EA and Blizzard, but I'm also interested in web developing and educational games making. I think the priority is to get my foot in the door.

My final project is a GDD for a simulation game called SimSchool. In this game, player will role playing the manager of a selected school type and manage your school in any possible ways you want to.
