Educational Skills

Design – The small size of our teams have given me the chance to have a large hand in the design and balancing of our games. This included writing large portions of the GDD’s. I am interested in more design work.

Teamwork – I have worked on three large game projects for college, and have thrived in a team environment. I derive motivation, attention to detail, and a sense of accomplishment from working in a team environment.

College Projects

Barrel Rapids (1 year) – Five person team working with three artists. Fast-paced 3D downhill river rapid racing game with weapons. My work features a neural net driven AI, flocking, data driven development, Lua script integration, river geometry is generated.

CrazyMax (1 year) – Three person team, it is a 2D top-down vehicular combat game with a grappling hook. My work includes point-mass ropes, design, weapons, and game logic.

Gexocide (1 year) – Three person team, ASCII based strategic RPG pitting ninjas against penguins
