Samuel Shulman

Hi, I'm Samuel, originally born in London and grew up around the UK I am currently settling in Madrid with my partner. Over the last 15 years I have gained valuable experience in the gaming industry, this has provided me with the skills and confidence to work effectively as an individual and as a team in a high pressured work environment. I like to challenge myself and enjoy succeeding in tasks in the workplace. I am a very reliable character and am always punctual in my work and attendance. I can work well in a team either as a team leader or a team member and calibrate well also taking external factors into consideration. In past jobs, I have worked as Chef, Labourer, Housekeeper as well as a farm hand in the few years I spent traveling in Australia. I am looking to start a new career utilizing the experience gained from playing video games most of my life either on the Xbox or computer. In my spare time, I like to skateboard at my local skate park, I also like to ride my bike and use this to go traveling to new skate parks and beaches on the weekend. I studied at DBS music and have just finished studying a two-day-a-week Music Production course over the past 2 years in Plymouth, UK.  Music production is another pastime of mine that I spend as much time as possible doing when I am not working. I am currently studying at Cronopios Idiomas a language school in Madrid Spain where I am currently studying Spanish to improve my quality of life here in Spain.

In my professional life, I have worked in a number of different work environments including kitchen, office, farm, and housekeeping. I am currently looking to get into some work either remotely or something a little less hands-on than the kitchen environment I am used to. Professionally, I am a chef as well as a Musician in my spare time, and I am looking to branch out into other work styles preferably from the computer. This wish stems from the fact that almost all my life I have been an avid gamer from a young age playing the PlayStation 1, to even the present day when I play with friends from my laptop at home. I have experience with all kinds of games and know the world of gaming very well. I am hoping that all these years have given me the experience I need to enter into the massive world of gaming and make a career out of it.
