About

I am an award-winning software architect and lead specialist in high-fidelity 3D simulation and extended reality (VR/AR/MR) with over 13 years of experience. I translate cognitive science and neuroscience findings into scalable, real-time virtual environments that deliver measurable improvements in training outcomes. My work centers on architecting robust, service-oriented platforms for high-stakes scenarios, including the FutureView simulator used by Anglo American and the US Marine Corps.

I excel at leading the full development lifecycle, from sophisticated client-side architecture to optimizing performance within synthetic data pipelines for machine learning. I leverage 3D technology to enhance decision-making and drive operational excellence across defense, aerospace, and education sectors, delivering immersive experiences that improve training effectiveness and outcomes.
