string AboutMe =
"I love to pour a lot of my time and effort into programming most of the time, but whenever I am not working, I'm (unsurprisingly) a fairly avid gamer.
My favorite games are first person shooters like Wolfenstein and Doom, open-world games like Legend of Zelda and Elden Ring, VR shooters, and practically any multiplayer social experience from Rainbow Six Siege to Minecraft.
When I'm away from video games entirely, I love learning and playing new instruments, singing, D&D, and a nice long hike! I recently picked up painting Warhammer 40k miniatures as well. If you're interested in playing tabletop games, I'd love to hear from you!"

Fun Facts
Hobbies
/*
I love playing video games! When I found my passion for programming, that's what turned me onto the path of making games!
I also enjoy music, both making it and listening, and I adore nature.

Favorite Movie
/*
Atlantis: the Lost Empire! I love the earlier art styles of Disney and the technology in the movie always interested me. Couple that with the spirit of exploration and I think it's a masterpiece.
*/
Favorite Game
/*
This is a hard choice, but I really enjoyed Elden Ring. I love how there are so many things to do and, similar to Dark Souls, it provides something of a challenge. I also like progression-based games so earning weapons, items, and leveling up was a lot of fun for me.

Favorite Game Puzzle
/*
I loved Leon S. Kennedy's desk puzzle in the RE 2 police station. It was not only designed well, but was also so heartbreaking, seeing what Leon's life would have been like without the T-Virus.
*/
Favorite D&D Class
/*
I love paladins. While it's against my min-maxing nature, there's something about being a divine knight that can dish out damage and healing alike that feels powerful.
