Hi, I’m Michael Allen — a senior at Old Dominion University studying Game Studies and Design. I’m passionate about technology, creativity, and the ways digital tools shape how we learn, play, and solve problems.
Over the past few years, I’ve built strong skills in security services, IT support, workflow documentation, and technical troubleshooting. I enjoy making complex processes easier to understand and more efficient, whether that’s through clear documentation or hands‑on problem solving.
Academically, I’m focused on the intersection of AI, education, and game design. I’m currently exploring how artificial intelligence can support learning, improve accessibility, and enhance interactive experiences. After completing my degree at ODU, I plan to continue my education — either by pursuing graduate studies in AI at Virginia Tech or by completing advanced studies at Old Dominion University.
Outside of academics and work, I’m interested in game development, emerging technology, and building systems that help people work smarter. I’m always looking for new ways to grow, learn, and apply my skills to meaningful projects.
