About

Hi, I’m Jens-Stefan Mikson, a software engineer and lead with 8 years of experience developing, designing, and leading virtual reality, mobile, and PC games and applications using the Unity game engine. I have a passion for creating immersive educational VR experiences, and I’ve successfully released multiple VR titles across platforms like Meta Horizon Store, Steam, and Pico Store.

I enjoy leading development teams, managing projects, and pushing the boundaries of VR mechanics, gameplay, and educational content. When I’m not coding, I like to explore new VR technologies and improve user experiences in the educational sector.
