Overview

My name is Ariella Rizzo, and I am a senior at the University of South Carolina, majoring in Media Arts with a concentration in Game Design. After graduating, I plan to pursue a career in game design. In my free time, you can usually find me playing cozy games or curled up with a good fantasy book.

​

In terms of experience, I have created three games. The first was developed using Python, and the other two were built in Unity. While these projects involved some coding, my primary focus was on interface design, story development, character design, and background design. I also have experience in web design as a front-end developer, so I am familiar with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. I have created websites for personal projects, academic assignments, and USC MIRC. Most recently, I’ve begun exploring 3D modeling using Maya, which I’ve been really enjoying, and I’m excited to continue developing those skills further.
