About me

Karaoke Enthusiast | Factory Game Fanatic | Avid Learner

As a game industry veteran and full-stack software developer, I bring a wide range of tools to any team I join. From concept to design to engineering and finally to implementation, I embody the concept of “full- stack”. I love working in a team in both team and leadership roles to solve problems and provide a wide range of creative solutions. I have over a decade of experience creating game content and user experiences for two MMOs and am proficient with a wide range of 3D & 2D design tools. More recently I have attended the full-time NSS web development boot camp to hone my engineering and algorithmic thinking skills.
