Jordan Hogan
About me
My name is Jordan Hogan. I have around 10 years of designing and developing games and projects. I have a degree in game development and have been working as a College tutor specificaly in the areas of games design and development for the last 5 years.
Some might say that I like games, and I would agree with thats slight understatment. Currently I am playing Forza Horizon 5 which is slightly different to the genres I normaly play. My top 5 games of all time would be Terraria, Rust, Dota 2 (many life long friends made on this game), GMod, and Civ 5. As you may be able to tell I don't really have a genre that I stick to. although, stratagy games and incremental games are my favourite.
Apart from games my other big passion is space and anything science, I'll often find myself watching documenteries and Youtube videos about various different areas of science that I just find interesting.
My skills lay primarily in creating projects of varying types on UE4 and I have experience in most areas of the engine helping with the wide range of ideas my students have had while developing their own projects.
Something that does not really come across in my CV is my ability to problem solve and being self sufficient at finding solutions to a range of issues. This has been vastly improved since working as a tutor, as you can imagine every lesson there will always be students coming to me with issues about their projects with a varying degree of difficulty. I have spent many hours of my time teaching looking over and understanding students blueprint from start to finish to help them fix issues whilst walking them through my thought process and problem solving techniques.
