About

I’m a Gameplay Programmer specializing in Unity (C#) and Unreal Engine 5 (C++), focused on building modular gameplay systems, scalable architectures, and performance optimization to deliver immersive player experiences. I enjoy turning ideas into robust systems and smooth player experiences, across gameplay programming, tooling, and visuals.

I thrive in Agile teams, integrating AI (Whisper), Niagara VFX, and 2D vector asset design into polished prototypes. I value clean, maintainable code and collaborative development to ship features that players remember.
