Hi! I’m Adam Weinstein and I'm an Autistic Jewish graduate student from Texas. I've always had an immense passion for both game development and history that I hope to try and combine by using my educational opportunities to educate through games as a medium and help bring history further to life for people all over the world. While in college, I went out of my way to become not only a member of the Jewish community but a leader in that community through my work with Hillel for Utah to keep other Jewish students from feeling like they didn't have a community to support them. I've also always been passionate about helping my community through volunteer work that I put hundreds of hours into during both high school and college with organizations like the National Honor Society and National English Honor Society, but I also continue to dedicate time and effort to helping those around me through my work as an individual volunteer at Fort Douglas Military Museum and as an officer of AFK: Game Developers doing good.
Ideal Workplace Values
