About me
Hello there, I'm Darryl Reekers. I’m 26 years old and grew up in Noord-Brabant in the Netherlands. Currently, I reside in Utrecht. Currently, I work as a Junior Pega Developer at Rabobank, where I perform the role of Pega DevOps Engineer, with experience in both front- and back-end development. In 2022 finished my Bachelor's degree in Creative Technology at the University of Twente in Enschede.
I enjoy 3D-Modelling, Programming, Game Design, UX and UI Design.
In my spare time, I develop games by myself and sometimes with friends, working on the Game Design, Programming, Shaders, Lighting, UX and UI Design.
In 2021, I started working on developing Virtual Reality games and experiences using Unity. I'm very interested in technology (both new and old), the creative process of movies and games. and the mediums of storytelling. My dream job would let me combine these interests to create awesome interactive storytelling experiences.
Additionally, I'm one of the founding members of the UT Game Guild, a student initiative to promote pursuing Game Design and Development within the University of Twente. In the past few years, we have hosted several Game Jams and workshops. At the end of 2021, I worked as Teaching Assistant for the Virtual Reality course of the Interactive Media module in Creative Technology.
