At my time at SPIN I lead the development of the studio's first two published VR games on Steam: Test Subject 901, a room-scaled sci-fi horror experience, and Hyper Psychic Gauntlets, a fast-paced arcade game that empowers players with telekinesis. I also supported the VFX side of the studio by creating shots within Unreal for films such as Think Like a Dog. I mainly worked with C++ and blueprints but also took on any other task that was needed to finish the product such as 3D modeling, texturing, VFX, SFX, level design and animation. More information about my involvement on the games can be found on the following pages: Test Subject 901 & Hyper Psychic Gauntlets.

Every year SPIN VR's parent company, SPIN VFX, chooses a member from each department and awards them based on certain credentials. I was chosen out of the VR department both in 2018 and 2019 for innovation achievement.

I was hired at Public Studio to work with a team to create a large digital art piece that utilized game programming. The position was a payed internship that officially ended after the first month but I continued to work on the project for an additional year as a regular employee.

Student

I studied at the Ontario University of Art and Design in a program called Digital Futures. Digital Futures is a special program in OCADU where students are treated as innovators and are given the freedom and tools to pursue their individual paths. Here I learned how to work with students from various other disciplines such as art and design to create a wide variety of programs that normally couldn't be created in a Computer Science program. Throughout the program I utilized this environment to create multiple games and virtual reality experiences.
