Meet Junaid Nomani!
Junaid… lookin’ dapper AF
Junaid Nomani is a Systems Engineer with several years of experience working on some complicated and interesting projects, such as Terminal, a PvP tower defense AI programming game with millions of automated matches between thousands of players and prize pools of up to $100k!
Hailing from New Jersey, Junaid holds a Masters in CS from Yale, and has worked on a variety of interesting projects including an OS for nuclear subs! He loves rock climbing, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and writing. In fact, he once did a challenge and wrote 30 short stories in 30 days!
Junaid grew up in “the boring suburbs of Long Island, New York.” Like the rest of us, he fell in love with games and filled his hours with a long list of favorites like: Final Fantasy 8, Majora’s Mask, Devil May Cry, Diablo 2, Warcraft 3, and good ol’ Counter Strike. He even managed to dabble in MMOs without a single one taking over his life!
After high school, Junaid attended SUNY Binghamton where he studied biology with the intention of becoming–a DOCTOR! That is, until he realized that being a doctor was “kinda boring and didn’t let you ‘experiment’ enough.” We’re not quite sure what type of ‘experiments’ Junaid wanted to do, but we’re super happy that he chose game development instead!
When Junaid’s not playing and making games, he might be found reading, writing, rock climbing, listening to weird music you’ve never heard of, or spending time with his beloved wife and cat.

Can't help but pick non-meta bizarre characters even in ranked matches
Into obscure stuff no one has heard of
Loves spicy food
Secretly an "edge lord"
