Hi, I'm Nermin, also called Nico, holding a degree International Media & Informatics (IMI) from HTW Berlin - University of Applied Sciences. Learning is the most important skill, and I believe that doing so in a playful, curiosity-driven way is the most effective and natural. Therefore, I aspire to a career in serious games. Games are also a cornucopia of software engineering topics; varied, versatile, challenging and engaging enough to never get bored.
While learning the ropes of full-stack development, I explore how gamification can be used for positive societal changes and businesses, and against dark-patterns and unethical practices.
Worked as a student tutor in '22 & '23, gaining experience in didactics, and expanding my skills, so I'll be able to design even greater gaming and learning opportunities after my graduation. Additionally, I worked as a development intern at RisingPixel on the Code Maze game for the EMBED Project by the EU, creating a level editor for the core game.
