About
NAME
David Dankwah
AGE
23
I am a frontend developer who is always hungry to learn new things. I am currently in my 3rd year studying Communication and Media Design at the Hogeschool van Amsterdam.
What I love about the function is that there is no routine. Everyday I get to learn something new and everyday I get to be creative.
The best part of being a developer is being able to work with a team. It’s not just me, but everyone who has a different skill set and together we can do anything.
I want to work somewhere where there are always new challenges and where I am not doing the same thing every day.
I’m really good at learning new skills quickly, so it’s never too hard for me to pick up a new skill set or learn how to use a new tool

Timeline
Hogeschool Rotterdam
2022 Aug – 2023 Feb
In my third year of school, I did the Game Design & Development minor at the Hogeschool Rotterdam. In the minor Game Design & Development you work on the design and realization of video games in multidisciplinary teams. The approach is to publish a successful game by looking at market trends and player feedback, to increase the chances of success.
I had chosen this minor because it sounded like a challenge, which it was. because I myself had no experience in programming games. The coding language I used was C# combined with the programs Unity and GitHub. This minor was very educational and fun to do. Definitely had no regrets.
Go2people
2022 Feb – 2022 Apr
I find Go2people to be a very suitable internship company. I have not regretted my choice. I learned a tremendous amount about coding in the 10 weeks I interned here. I received a warm welcome and a clear explanation of what to expect, what was expected of me and where to find all the information if I had any questions or wanted to look something up. They showed me how things work in practice and prepared me for the next level.

In Communication and Multimedia Design, you focus on the entire design process. You get courses in technology, design and interaction design. It is important that the product connects with the people who will use it.
