Hello! I’m a software developer with 8 years of experience building games/VR, mobile apps in a full-stack capacity, and a little web development. For six years, I worked at the VR studio Red Iron Labs where I worked with big clients like ExxonMobil and local universities to build VR applications. I work closely with my clients to learn what they need and create the best solution for them.
