Chillennium is the world’s largest student-run collegiate game jam. Hosted by Texas A&M’s School of Performance, Visualization, and Fine Arts, Chillennium brings together students from across the country to create video games against a 48-hour time crunch.
I had the privilege to join its planning team in the Fall of 2021 as Locations Manager, and was quickly promoted to Event Management Lead a couple months later. In 2023 I became the Assistant Director and was the Director for 2024. For the past two years, I have been responsible for securing the event’s venue, catering, Wi-Fi, and power, as well as helping create the event’s schedule and managing registration.
As Director, I have created customized budget and asset tracking spreadsheets to best suit our different teams’ needs. I hold regular meetings with our leadership committee and act as the go-between between students and faculty/industry professionals.
In 2024, Chillennium brought in nearly 300 participants from 23 different schools. Joining the students was a panel of industry mentors and judges 50 people strong.
