About

Gameplay Programmer focused on building mechanics and systems that feel responsive, readable, and fun. I work mainly in Unity and Unreal Engine using C# and C++, with hands on experience from game jams and personal projects where I prototype, iterate, and ship gameplay features end to end. I enjoy turning abstract ideas into playable systems, polishing moment to moment feel, and breaking down complex gameplay problems into clean, maintainable code. Actively sharing what I learn and open to professional gameplay programming opportunities and paid collaborations.
