Matthew Guzdial

I came to Georgia Tech not knowing exactly what I wanted to do, but knowing that I liked computers and I liked media. Given those facts, Computational Media (CM) seemed like a good fit for me. 

As I went through CM I drew more and more towards video games, finding them not only entertaining, but interesting as media and largely unexplored. A few industry internships and a bit of undergraduate research later, I graduated with offers from both academia and industry and decided to go for my Ph.D. in Computer Science here at Georgia Tech.

Now I use my unique blend of computational and media-oriented thinking to work on making computers more creative. My portfolio is at guzdial.com (though it's woefully out of date).
