I am interested in Entry-Level and Mid-Level Software Development careers
Profile
Most of my experience in game development has been through occasional freelance work and my constant
personal projects which for the most part do not see the light of day. Over the course of my time developing
games I have ship over a dozen titles for the iOS, Android, Kindle, and PC markets. My other shipped products
also include a couple of popular plug-ins for the Unity game engine.

Other Interests
When I am not working or having fun programming I am usually playing games like Minecraft, SimCity, and the
“Anno” series. My favorite genre would have to be management games like ‘tycoon’ games. I also enjoy
photography, 3D modeling, drawing, and of course relaxing.
