About #

I'm a software developer with eleven years of professional experience building interactive real-time graphics software across a variety of platforms. I live in Los Angeles, California and have a BS in Mathematics and a minor in Statistical Sciences from the University of California, Santa Barbara. I currently work at NVIDIA building Omniverse, a real-time simulation platform.

My interests include programming, card games, mathematics, generative art, hiking, probabilistic simulation methods, and playing guitar.

You can find me on the web at GitHub, Instagram, LinkedIn, Mastodon, Shadertoy, VertexShaderArt, Twitter, Sketchfab, and Youtube.
