Ex-Microsoft Program Manager and Game Dev with 6 years of Unity Experience. Published on the iOS App Store and the Meta Quest store. Currently working as a Gaming & AI Engineer for HP.

I’ve developed multiple games, published them on the iOS and Meta App Store, published articles, given developer talks, and have accumulated over 500,000 views on social media.

I like to tell stories that haven’t been told before, and design experiences that haven’t been made before. I’m passionate about the future of game dev, and want to be involved in building what comes next!
