About Me
hello! i’m ham or hamilton :D
I’m a Business Management Economics major at UC Santa Cruz with a Technology & Information Management minor. I’m interested in product, production, operations, and eventually working somewhere at the intersection of technology and games.
Games have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up playing Roblox, Minecraft, Call of Duty, Rainbow Six Siege, and basically every car game I could find. I also got pretty competitive, reaching the top 0.5% in VALORANT and Champion in Rainbow Six Siege on console.
I was also the kid making Roblox games and websites for fun. Back in 2018, I built Loodekres.com, one of my first websites, and I’ve always liked figuring out how things on the internet and in games actually work.
I’ve wanted to work in technology and games for a long time, even though I’ve definitely heard my fair share of “good luck with that” and “what are you going to do with your life playing video games?” Instead of making me lose interest, it made me want to turn something I already cared about into something I could actually build a career around.
One of my favorite franchises is Resident Evil (the movie was okay). I also grew up watching way too much YouTube, especially GTA V trolling videos and Minecraft creators. Games and the internet shaped a lot of my interests and are a big reason I enjoy building things for online communities.
Outside of games and work, I like weightlifting, walking, drawing, listening to music, eating, and snacking while watching YouTube. I’m also really into cars and currently own a Mercedes 240D.
Mostly, I like making things, learning random stuff, meeting new people, and working on projects I actually care about.

GEN.G Esports Partnerships & Program Manager
“Hamilton was one of the best student leaders to work with across Gen.G's Collegiate Club Program. He didn’t just execute. He understood his campus, his community, and how to make Gen.G campaigns land in a way that made sense for UCSC students.”
“He was reliable, communicative, and able to operate independently while staying locked in with the team. I’d work with him again in a heartbeat.”
