My hobby project turned pro! During the early years I did everything from buying the office snacks to shooting the investor sizzle reel, doing all the office IT, and programming the engine, game, tools and tech. Now I head up Product for our game and companion apps. Responsibilities include all product team hiring and interviews, being Product Owner of the game and companion mobile app, 3D engine programming, game team lead programmer, 3rd party hardware integration, and product release engineer.

My work at Applied Minds was as exciting (or more) as game development, but unfortunately I can't talk too specifically about it. I spent significant time on graphics programming, VR, depth camera experimentation, Windows WPF, and Android NDK during my time here. C++ and C# were the languages of choice.I chose to leave Applied Minds to pursue my hobby project, which became Zwift, Inc.

Started an entity to work under for various game/graphics programming contracts. * Wrote a software rasterizer that used a GL-esque api for a custom mobile device in 2004* Designed, manufactured and sold a small electronic sensor for 1997-2004 Corvettes to work around an issue GM failed to address. These were sold online and at various 'hot rod' shops around the US.* Created a power monitoring system for my home using arduino to act as a measurement device and data server, complete with WPF Windows Client, and native Android client to view the data. http://pm.ls1howto.com/* Developed an exercise application for iPad/PC/MAC which allows an indoor bicycle user to ride in a 3d virtual world while measuring heart rate, wattage output, speed, and cadence.

Imagine "PIX" for PSP.

Joined this fun little mobile games company just before they shut down. Programmed mobile games using BREW and J2ME, and made the level editor for a game in MFC/Win32.
