Have a plan, put it together, and just keep going for it.
About Ahmed
- I grew up with a strong interest in video games.
- I followed in my brother’s footsteps and went to the University of Massachusetts Amherst for computer science.
- After graduating, I got a job as a software engineer and worked my way up to a senior solutions consultant in tech sales.
- While working in tech sales, my brother and I were designing our video game on the side.
- After about a decade of working both jobs, I wanted to transition to game design full time and was able to convince my brother to do so after attending a gaming convention.
- My brother and I co-founded Decoy Games and are now full-time indie game developers.
