Hey There
What drives me most is the desire to find new ways of expressing my creativity. I believe that art is a powerful medium for storytelling, connection, and transformation. Each project I undertake is an exploration, a way to communicate ideas and emotions that words alone cannot convey. Games and programming is another, beautiful, form of art for me.

I majored in Engine and Tools specialization which allowed me to gain technical skills of C++ while working on my very own game engine. Read about PurracleEngine in my blog or programming part of my portfolio!
All About Me
I'm Victoria Yurevich, but you might know me as VikaKot. I'm originally from Russia, but my journey has taken me across various parts of Europe. Currently, I call Sweden my home, but I've also had the pleasure of living in the Netherlands and Belgium. Each place has left a unique mark on me, enriching my perspective and fueling my creativity.
​
I've started my programming journey by pursuing a bachelor's degree in Software Engineering and Management at Gothenburg University. However, after completing 1.5 years, I realized that there are better opportunities for me out there. I enrolled at a Game Programming educational program at Futuregames Malmö and quickly after that, I found a hands-on opportunity to test my skills at Sony within Advanced Content Creation team. Both of which gave me extensive knowledge of Unity and Unreal Engine in addition to the proficiency in various programming languages that I gained throughout my journey.
​
Art has always been at the core of my life. From a young age, I found solace and joy in creative expression. I write poems that capture fleeting emotions and moments, and my love for photography allows me to see the world through a unique lens. While I enjoy traditional painting, my true passion lies in digital art. The limitless possibilities of digital painting fascinate me, and I continuously explore new techniques and styles to push the boundaries of my creativity.​
