Gameplay Programmer • Unity Developer • Technical Director
I'm a non-binary indigenous game developer based in Winnipeg, MB, Canada. I specialize in Unity, with a focus on gameplay programming, VR/AR/XR, and technical direction. I’m passionate about creating emotionally rich and mechanically engaging experiences.
Here's a selection of notable projects I worked on while at ZenFri.
CMF-funded narrative VR game. I worked on interaction systems and the save file architecture.
Led development from concept, pitch, web engine creation, task creation, all the way to final delivery. I was the sole programmer.

Play it here. (Password: bard)Here's a small selection of things I did for fun.
A game written in C using SDL. That's it. It uses CMidi and it has production tooling written in Lua so that levels can be editted, complied, and tested, directly in Tiled
A software based real-time MIDI syhtnesizing header library written in C.
If you have a C complier you can test it out by creating RIFF_WAV files here: Use CMidi
A single C header implementation of a generic hash table. Originally created for use in CMidi.
Read the README.mdCreated a 2D Game Engine written in C++ and SDL2. Created a game with the engine and published to Steam. An older piece in my portfolio but this still demonstrates of my ability to plan, execute, and deliver a product.
