I build interaction.
Versatile engineer focused on interactive systems: game development, educational software, data visualization, and more. Aside from technical skills, I also have experience with branding, marketing, and distribution. I’ve shipped several commercial products, and I’m now looking to collaborate with the right team. Currently based in San Antonio, I’m open to relocation.
