Hey, I'm Matthew Allen, a University Innovation Fellow candidate from the Spring 2015 cohort. I'm a Game Design, Art and Animation student at Kent State University. While going to school I am also Director of Technology at Blackstone LaunchPad at Kent State University and Lab Tech for College of Technology, Kent Campus. I'm also President of Imagineers at Kent campus.

Imagineers is a club centered around animation and game design. As President I am pushing the club to teach students new skills that are not openly taught in class as well as create a place for open discussion on trending technology and interests.

Aside from work and school I continually seek to improve my knowledge in fields of 3D modeling, entrepreneurship and general technology. I also like to read about major current events and pose questions about them to my friends for open debate, which sometimes includes me playing devils advocate.

I love discussion but unfortunately the world I was brought up in does not, this is what I aspire to change.
