Hello, everyone, my name is Bruno Xavier. I'm currently a junior at Rutgers Newark and I'm majoring in Graphic Design with a possible minor in art history. I've lived my whole life in Newark and have loved every second of it. The reason I want to become a Graphic Designer is because of my mother. She supports me in everything I do and makes sure that I follow my dreams. I couldn't ask for a better mother than her because she is willing to sacrifice everything for her kids.

She was the reason I fell in love with Video Games. She handed me my first Nintendo 64 controller and my first taste for video games was on that day. I still remember the first game I played the game "GoldenEye 007" and I had no idea what I was playing. All I knew was I was in love with video games at that moment. I love everything that goes into making video games so that why I watch lots of documentaries of games. It teaches me all the hardships that developers face while making the game and how they overcome them. By learning all these hardships it makes me want to start making my own video games but I need to learn the basic so that I can learn how to sell my fantasy.

Growing up, it was hard because my mom was a single mother trying to support her children and me, unfortunately, didn't have friends growing up. The only person that was my best friend was my mom which wasn't all bad because we played video games together. But this led me to be shy towards new people and I was it hard having no kids your own to play with. Then I met 2 people that today I'm proud to call my brothers and they saved my life. If it wasn't for them I would have gone a dark path and it would have hurt my mom which something I never want to do.
