ERIN ALVARICO
GAME PROGRAMMER || DESIGNER || ARTIST
WHO AM I?
I am currently attending Marist College in Poughkeepsie, NY as an undergraduate pursuing degrees in Computer Science (B.S.) and Games and Emerging Media (B.S. Concentration in Technology). I am on track to graduate Spring of 2022. I am an alumnus of Freehold Township High School (FTHS). Passionate in the arts and programming, I aim to one day create my own games for others to enjoy.
​
I love learning new skills and techniques that can help nurture my understanding and appreciation for animation and art. I seek to draw inspiration from my peers to find my own style in illustrations and development. With that drive, I am pursuing higher education to hone my skills in programming and design at Marist College. To this day, I am planning to take advantage of my lucrative opportunities by leading my own club, participating in extracurricular activities, and studying abroad.
I am looking for experience to aid me in entering the Computer/Gaming Industry. With this in mind, I have made many efforts to join and collaborate with NYC game developers at conferences/conventions/game jams. I have also volunteered and participated in initiatives such as Girls Make Games and Change the Game to promote a female interest in pursuing STEM or Gaming as a career.

MARIST AWARD
FOR THE RECORD
After publishing Symphony on the Google Play App Store, Marist College had recognized me as being one of the 50 students on campus to be making world-changing products and opportunities.
The article describes the actions I am taking after the launch of my game, Symphony, on-campus and involvement in game industry initiatives.
MARIST CIRCLE NEWSPAPER
GIRLS CAN GAME TOO
In my freshman to sophomore years attending Marist College, it caught wind of my involvement with Google and Girls Make Games!
Interviewed by the Marist Circle, a brief article was written about my involvement to encourage the younger female generation of game makers to learn more about game design. Through tutoring and coaching students from the ages of 8 - 18, I have helped many females discover their love of game development.
