Good Luck, Have Fun!

My name is Andrew Yoon Kohnke. Thank you for accessing my page. I graduated from Herzing University in 2019 with a concentration in Software Development.

Since then, I've had the privilege to start my journey at Sony PlayStation where I worked on God of War: Ragnarok as my first video game title - followed by MLB The Show '23.

Currently, I work at Blizzard Entertainment as Test Analyst where I specialize in Art Cosmetics on the Overwatch 2 team.

In my free time, I like to play Flesh & Blood TCG, and of course, play video games! First-Person Shooters and Role-Playing Games are a few of my favorite types of games to play.

Below list a few of my projects I am most proud to share with you all both, personally and professionally.
