About

Unity/VR developer and PhD researcher who served as lead developer on a clinical VR application (VheaRts) used by surgeons at Great Ormond Street Hospital, taking over a messy codebase and rebuilding its architecture, documentation, and extensibility. Also built research-focused Unity VR experiments (e.g., change blindness in a dynamic living room) with sophisticated logic to control participant attention while monitoring physiological cues.

  • Built generic save/state system enabling backward compatibility and some forward compatibility
  • Delivered performance/optimization and future-proofing improvements under tight constraints (part-time over 1 year while completing PhD)
  • Designed VR experiment logic to trigger out-of-view environmental changes without breaking participant autonomy (safe-direction sphere placement algorithm)
  • Incorporated surgeon feedback to add/improve VR interaction tools
  • Built local network setup enabling teaching use without existing network infrastructure
