Systemic Games is the company under which I develop independent games and other projects.The range of projects I work on under that umbrella I think illustrate the many areas of expertise and interest that I have. From a small puzzle game teaching kids electronics to building a Bluetooth-enabled playing die from scratch, I can cover many aspects of software and hardware development.

I am available for freelance work. I have extensive C++, C# and Unity expertise. In fact, I have written several assets for the Unity Asset Store.I am very proficient with rendering and shaders, creating effects of all sorts. And from my experience with native code and electronics, I can also be of help with your physical installations or VR/AR prototype hardware.Some of my clients already include Oculus, PluralSight and Adobe

I started a small Indie studio with a couple of friends. Together we worked on a game called Fireborne. This gave me a chance to really dive into Unity, and understanding the many facets of game development beyond the technical.

I worked on Oblivion, Fallout 3, Skyrim and Fallout 4 as part of the AI and Systems group.Most notably, I designed and implemented a Navmesh-based navigation system for the studio's large, constantly-streaming worlds. From writing tools to generate the navmesh, to dealing with characters moving through unloaded portions of the world, to animation (turning around, banking for quadrupeds, interacting with the environment), I handled all locomotion concerns.As a side project, I also implemented the Critter system for the engine (the butterflies and fish in Skyrim for instance). This was an effort to make a low-impact creature system that was entirely controlled by scripts, and that the artists could customize and place in the world at their leisure.Ironically, the critters had much, much more of a visible impact on the players. I guess NPC AI is one of those things that you only notice when it goes wrong. ;)

Terminal Reality was where I shipped my first game: BloodRayne 2. I also worked on an Aeon Flux game, based on the 2005 movie.I worked on several game systems, fairly quickly specializing in FX programming. In fact, I rewrote the company's Particle Engine for Aeon Flux and named it after a character I had lots of fun working on in the previous game: Ephemera.
