About Me

I’m a gameplay programmer passionate about crafting engaging player experiences. I'm proficient in C++ and have used it with Lua to make Two Rings: Vanquish and Bloom out now on steam. I enjoy making tools to help speed up the process of making games in WPF using C# and XAML. I recently made an unreal engine tool to help accelerate my workflow in the editor and testing in game. I'm currently studying at DigiPen Institute of Technology.
