About Me
Hi, I’m a gameplay designer and systems developer with a First Class Honours degree in Game Production. I specialize in designing mechanics and prototyping core gameplay loops from concept to implementation, utilizing C#, C++, and Java across Unity and Unreal Engine. My focus is on creating engaging player experiences, balancing game systems, and developing intuitive player UI/UX. Beyond design, I have six years of experience managing live community events and orchestrating complex, game-driven charity live streams that have raised over $250,000.
