Welcome,
My name is Travis Wilson, programming is my passion.
About Me
My game development journey began in 2008 when I wrote my first line of Lua as a part of the Roblox community. Later achieving an award for gaining over 1000 monthly active users and gaining over 1.2 million plays on my games. In May 2023 I began pursuing formal education at Eastern College as a Video Game Development student. I'm all about bringing ideas to life through code.
My professional journey has included roles in UI automation, software testing, and leadership positions, growing my adaptability and teamwork skills. I hold certifications in Game Production and programming, showing my commitment to continuous learning.

Dennis Hubley
I am writing to wholeheartedly recommend Travis Wilson for a position as a game developer. As Travis’s instructor in game development, I have had the privilege of witnessing his extraordinary growth and development in the field. Travis is a standout student whose passion for game development is matched only by his impressive skill set, which includes a strong work ethic, an insatiable curiosity, an exceptional eye for detail, and remarkable creativity.

Travis was responsible for preparing kitchen designs, programming of CNC inputs/outputs and development of library content for our cabinet manufacturing facility. Although Travis had no formal training using the design software, he learned it very quickly, figuring out its nuances and trained others. Travis spent time developing and implementing custom macros & programming to improve design efficiency and accuracy of information. These implementations improved design productivity by more than 100%.
