Hi, I'm Ricardo Machado – an international student from São Paulo, Brazil, currently pursuing a BFA in Game Arts at Pratt Institute in New York. I recently transferred from Eugene Lang College of Liberal Arts at The New School, where I completed five semesters in Culture & Media.

This transition reflects a meaningful change in my academic and creative journey – driven by a lifelong passion for gaming and a deep desire to express myself through one of the most immersive and innovative artistic mediums. My goal is to blend my background in media studies and storytelling with the technical and artistic aspects of game design.
