About

I am a technical game designer with experience in various technologies at independent and AAA levels. When faced with a new challenge, I am highly skilled at analyzing the problem and coming up with possible solutions and paths to implementation. I can accomplish this using either public facing game engines or proprietary AAA tools. I build my solo projects in Unity and Unreal C++ and have demonstrated technical experience developing features in the Call of Duty franchise. I'm currently looking to establish connections and conversations leading to an associate level games job in summer 2026.
