Freshman · BCSA · Carnegie Mellon University

About

My name is Kai Geng. I'm a freshman in the Bachelor of Computer Science and Arts (BCSA) program at Carnegie Mellon University, with a lifelong passion for games, fueled by over fifteen years of gameplay across diverse genres and strengthened by growing experience in design. Through game design, I hope to bring my visions to life in digital worlds that are engaging and fun.

My fine art works center on uncovering meaning in what is often overlooked — the small, the broken, and the ordinary. Each piece is a step in reimagining fragments — not as flaws, but as opportunities for imagination to take root.
