Hi, I’m Joey Kossen from Schagen, a charming city in northern Netherlands. Born in 2000, I’m currently 23 years old and in my fourth year studying Game Development at the Hogeschool van Amsterdam (HvA), where I’m working towards my Bachelor of Science.
I’m passionate and driven, with a strong enthusiasm for programming and game design. My friends describe me as funny, kind, and trustworthy—qualities I value and strive to embody. I maintain a positive outlook on life, which, while occasionally annoying, fuels my passion for video games and their intricate development process.
Outside of school, I work as a Supervisor at Kinepolis Den Helder, where I manage daily operations and ensure a smooth experience for visitors. I previously taught C# at Mediacollege Amsterdam, which was a rewarding part-time job.
In my free time, I enjoy playing sports with friends, though I’m more of a casual player—bowling and pool being particular favorites. I’m also a big fan of Marvel movies and frequently visit the cinema for new releases. Additionally, I love playing both video and board games, with "Ori and the Will of the Wisps" and "Exploding Kittens" being among my top picks.
I’m skilled in Unity and C#, and have a working knowledge of HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Python. While I often source art from the internet, I’m also proficient with Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Audition, and Adobe Premiere Pro.
