Games, interaction and human experience at the University of Toronto
I’m Brooks. I make games and interfaces, and study how people use them. Some of this work you can play; some is still taking shape.
Play a prototype, watch a demo, or read how a project came together.
Paid work, volunteering and campus roles alongside my studies.
App design, video and motion graphics
I designed the Dragon Maple iPhone app, which takes a parcel from a counter in Canada to a door in China: price it, pay, drop it off with a code and follow it on one timeline, in Chinese or English. I also made promotional videos and motion graphics for sales and business development.
Video and digital marketing
I make commercial videos and digital marketing assets, working with the sales team on how products are presented.
Mentorship
I help students with goals, campus resources and the first steps of university life. I’ve also volunteered as an accessibility notetaker.
Volunteer video production director
I made promotional films, photographs and vlogs for education initiatives supporting underserved students.
Some ideas became games. Others became an essay, a short story or a paper prototype.
I’m a third-year University of Toronto Mississauga student studying Technology, Coding & Society, with minors in Game Studies and English.
I like making things people can try. Recently, that has meant figuring out how a water weapon changes a level, and helping friends build a map for the campus we actually use.
Exploring graduate study in game design, digital media, UX and human–computer interaction. Expected graduation: June 2027.
