About
Senior software engineer with 20+ years of experience delivering games, AR/VR attractions, and cross-platform interactive 3D products. I lead architecture and hands-on development across Unity/C#, Unreal Engine/C++, gameplay systems, multiplayer integration, rendering, performance optimization, and developer tools. At PictureThis3d, I led engineering for Digidigz, an interactive 3D product that creates virtual replicas of real spaces. Earlier work includes Universal Studios attractions, including Super Nintendo World, and Iron Maiden: Legacy of the Beast. I am seeking senior or lead engineering roles in games, real-time 3D, simulation, visualization, and XR. Based in Victoria, BC, available to start immediately, and open to remote work or hybrid roles in Victoria and Vancouver.

Digidigz — Interactive 3D Spaces
At PictureThis3d, I led engineering for the Digidigz cross-platform 3D product configurator. My responsibilities covered architecture, implementation, integration, optimization, deployment, and production support, with work in real-time rendering, procedural generation, 3D reconstruction, computational geometry, mesh deformation, and boolean geometry.
The product provides interactive virtual replicas and shareable property experiences across Windows, WebGL, iOS, and Android. It demonstrates my ability to turn geometry-heavy real-time 3D engineering into a usable cross-platform product.

Interactive XR for Themed Attractions
At Dreamcraft Attractions, I developed AR/VR gameplay and interaction systems for Universal Studios attractions, including Super Nintendo World. My contribution was software engineering: implementing production features, debugging, and optimizing interactive systems using Unity/C# and Unreal Engine/C++.
The work connected game engineering with an audience-facing physical experience. It demonstrates practical XR interaction development without claiming ownership of the complete attraction or hardware.

Procedural Section Builder — Unreal Editor Tooling
My Unreal project includes a Procedural Section Builder with separate runtime, editor, and test modules. The architecture separates serialized recipes, interactive preview geometry, and baked output. The bake path creates project-owned assets and native engine actors, with mesh material handling, collision, dependency checks, and recovery logic.
This project demonstrates experience with procedural geometry and authoring tools for game and visualization workflows. The tool remains an in-development project; release and full portability claims require further verification.
