Game Development • Software Engineering
I'm a software engineer and game developer studying Computer Science & Engineering at The Ohio State University, with a specialization in Computer Graphics & Game Design. I like turning new and interesting ideas into reality and viewing development holistically, from concept to implementation. I pride myself on keeping a multifaceted approach to development, and blending technical expertise, creative thinking, and attention to detail to create something functional and aesthetically pleasing.
Right now I'm working as a Software Engineering Intern at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center for the summer. Outside of work and school, I play trombone as one of the fourteen members of F-row in The Ohio State University Marching Band, and I spend a lot of time playing games, reading, writing, and playing around with new ideas and technologies.
