About Me
I am a full-stack developer and systems designer of 7+ years specializing in extended reality (XR). I'm passionate about automated systems and network infrastructure, generative AI deployment, and VR gameplay design.
In 2017, I pioneered a workflow for using XR in industrial design applications at Formation Design Group. XR has become an integrated part of Formation's design process: I independently create immersive, interactive virtual prototypes for clients at a fraction of the cost of physically constructed prototypes.
I'm the sole XR developer on a small team of designers and engineers. To help us collaborate more effectively, I expanded my skill set to encompass generalized software development and deployment. I've become proficient with network infrastructure, self-hosted and NDA-compliant AI tools (see Unreal Engine Llama LoRA or Algorithmic Pattern Lycoris!), and project automation suites like Notion and n8n.
Many of these skills are self-taught and honed in online developer communities, and I'm always pursuing new knowledge—especially as technology continues to shift. I also have a bachelor's degree in media studies and a certificate in game development.
Outside of work, I'm an avid game dev and mod author and an aquaculture enthusiast. I'm a parent to a senior cat, a colony of 100+ neocardinia shrimp, and more plants than I have light in my apartment.
