About Me

Hi, I’m Ko Sand — a passionate and driven student currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science with Honours in Computer Science in Interactive Media and Game Development at SIT-DigiPen Singapore.

​

With a strong foundation in game development and software engineering, I specialize in building engaging gameplay experiences using Unity (C#) and custom engines (C++). My past internships and national service experience have shaped me into a fast learner who works well under pressure, communicates effectively in team settings, and delivers results.

​​

Here you can see some of the projects I've had the opportunity to contribute, and some of the personal projects I've been working on.
