Revolutionizing Education

Since 2017 I've been on campaign to get quality, honest-to-goodness industry standard technology knowledge and processes into public and private schooling. What has resulted has been that I've gotten to visit and teach thousands of students across many institutions in Las Vegas in some of the most exciting topics one can conceive of.

The Skim

  • Taught Videogame Development for The Art Institute of Las Vegas

  • Many guest visits to various schools (i.e Marzano Academy) and after school tutoring companies (i.e. Code Central)

  • 5 years teaching magnet school videogame development for CCSD (Eldorado HS)

  • Co-Authored the Nevada Department of Education's State Standards for Digital Game Development

  • Currently teach part-time (morning class) for The Adelson School in Las Vegas, NV.

The Las Vegas Summer Game Jam

Las Vegas's first ever annual game jam, partnered with game industry titans like Epic Games, was created entirely by Conner Torres with the mission of enlivening the tech development talent pool in Las Vegas, NV.
