Get to know me

I'm a Gameplay Programmer located in London. I've been a software engineer for over 10 years.

I mainly enjoy developing in Unity and C#, but have dabbled in many other engines including Unreal and LibGDX. Thoroughly enjoy working with small tight-knit teams.

My interest in gaming started with Zelda on the N64, and continued with other favourites such as Age of Empires 2 and Super Smash Bros. If you play either of these games please get in touch with me asap, so I can evaluate whether you may be deemed a worthy opponent or not.

Always open to hearing about new opportunities or just discussing games and game dev in general.
