PassionHigh
From her first PS2 to her current beast of a rig, Charlette's life has been filled with games. She's played Triple As, Indies, competitive games, and so much more. In a highschool that confiscated the computer of anyone caught gaming, Charlette fashioned her own motion-sensor detector to evade the watchful eyes of her dorm parents. With such a passion for games and the stories they are able to tell, she is fascinated by all aspects of game development and wishes to learn as much as she can.

PAST PROJECTS
Ideal Gas Simulation
This is a simulation of an ideal gas I made for my Physics class. I wanted to verify the formula pV = nRT using the definition of pressure as p = F/A. Using Unreal Engine 4, I was able to calculate the pressure by collecting the Force applied by each molecule on the walls of the box and dividing that by the total surface area of the inner box. Through this simulation, I was able to show that a) pV = nRT holds true for ideal gasses b) this equation is independent of mass. This simulation also allows you to input the temperature (in Kelvin), the mass of the molecule (in kg), the volume of the box (in m^3) and the number of molecules and creates the starting state accordingly.

Expansion Points
This simulation can benefit from a proper GUI. With a fast enough computer, I could also change the
simulation to simulate gas particles with gravitational attraction. This would allow the simulation to
verify the Van der Waals formula
