Bucket List: Katherine Tucker

 

I have ambitious goals for my career: I would like to successfully make it as a renowned independent artist, running my own small game studio. I am hoping to graduate as an honor’s student with a bachelor’s in computer science for game design, with at least 8 small games already made. I also intend to submit art pieces to art galleries or similar public events where I can. I see games as not just entertainment but an art form, and I could easily dedicate my life to proving this as a fact, exploring not just what games are but what they could be. I am excited to enter such a rapidly evolving industry. 

 

 I wish to travel the world and learn 10 languages. I want to learn about diverse cultures, experience their music and food. I think that it’s vital for the mind and the soul to see so many different perspectives. My big ones to see are New Zealand, Ireland, Italy, Japan, and South Korea. I became particularly good at speaking Spanish, but lost the spark to keep learning it, which is a shame, because I like the language more than English. I guess getting back into it would be a short-term goal. 

 

I would like to get rich, but not for a sports car. Instead, I want a house that I can place gargoyles on and build a hedge maze in the garden. We need more scary goth houses in the world. I would also like to get married someday, but it’s no rush. Maybe in my 30s I will shop around for someone nice. I care more about having a strong group of friends by my side.
