Experience

Bachelor – Computer Engineering (Software Focused)

I earned a computer engineering degree from Iowa State University. I took interesting classes such as, Computational Perception, Computer Graphics, Computer Games and Media, Electronic System Design, and the required classes. These classes helped me refine my problem solving skills, documentation methods, and software development experience… Honestly, I learned this most working in the Augmented Reality Lab.

Fulltime – C++/UE4 Lead Developer

In 2015 I started a game development company Quantum Bit Studios LLC as a side project. So far I have worked on three projects The Maze Experiment, Time Raid, and Sand Party. Time Raid is a time travel based puzzle game, check out the demo here. Recently, I have been working on Sand Party. You can check that demo out over here.

Part-time – C++ Developer

The Augmented Reality Lab is a group within Iowa State University’s Virtual Reality Applications Center (VRAC). As an undergraduate I worked with Dr. Rafael Radkowski on various object tracking demonstration applications and prototypes for companies such as Danfoss, Boeing, Rockwell, and a smaller demo for NASA. The final project I worked on involved integrating our object tracking framework with the Microsoft Hololens (Video).

Seasonal – Lifeguard

Before graduating from college, I worked at a local pool and a lifeguard and swim lesson instructor. I often took on a leadership role while teaching swim lessons.
