My name is, Quintan Savage Gerhardstein, and I obtained an undergraduate degree in electrical engineering and a focus on game design from RIT (honors, 2023). I am enrolled in the MS in Creative Technologies and Design to further my skills in user experience and gain insight into entrepreneurship with an emphasis on social equity. One goal is to become a better inventor of tools, both software and hardware, that brings the user a more authentic, and potentially culturally resonant, experience to interact with computer technology. In my free time, I satisfy my creative itch through the innovation of multiple small games and devices. I have also has fenced for years and looks forward to joining the UCB intramural fencing club.
