SHORT SUMMARY
I earned my Bachelor’s in Computer Science from Barrett, the Honors College at Arizona State University, along with a certificate in Game Development. I am currently pursuing a Master’s in Computer Science at DigiPen Institute of Technology, specializing in gameplay systems and engine-level development.
My interest in games began at a young age and evolved from playing them to understanding how they work. Today, that interest drives my focus on building the systems that power interactive experiences—from core mechanics to underlying engine architecture.
I’m particularly interested in how systems, design, and technology intersect to create immersive and responsive game worlds.
