ABOUT ME

Jacqueline Holdaway

 

I’m a game designer based in Sydney that specialises in the areas of Level Design and UI/UX Design. I’ve always enjoyed playing games and reading books as I love being immersed in the worlds created through them and the experiences and stories they portray. This led me to the world of games design as I wanted to shape the players experience with the level design. I have an in-depth understanding of game and level design theory and the development process cycle. I’m also knowledgeable on UI/UX design and how important this is to shaping the interaction between the players and game environment. 

​

I recently graduated SAE Institute Sydney with a Bachelor of Games Development Majoring in Design. Through this I’ve been able to work on various games, in team environments which has given me a better understanding of the development process and taught me many skills. Throughout this journey I have had the opportunity to work in many roles from project manager and scrum master to lead level design and Lead UI/UX designer. 

​

Overall my love for games has grown as I've learned and practiced the development processes. I hope to use what I have learned to create experiences that affect and leave a lasting impression on players as they immerse themselves into the world and fall in love with games just as I did.
