Nick Risse
Game & Level Designer | Team Lead | Production
Hi, my Name is Niklas Risse, but you might want to call me Nick for short. I am a Game & Level Designer with interests in project management and production, and a Creative Media and Game Technology student at the Hanze UAS since 2021.
I love to learn and discover new things and I enjoy being part of a new learning experience, whether it be my own or someone else's. I think that we never stop learning and that there is always something you don't know.
