About

Unity/C# developer with defense/USAF VR experience who built a first-of-its-kind real-time metrics/telemetry API layer (serialized + encrypted JSON over REST) that enabled in-engine performance assessment and drove third-party LMS dashboard requirements. Currently prototyping an AI-driven "DM" agent experience using OpenClaw with model switching (Ollama) and Claude Code for in-engine benchmarking while weighing self-hosted vs cloud LLM tradeoffs (security/latency/cost). Based in Austin, TX; prefers remote but open to relocation with assistance.

  • Designed secure data pipeline: struct-templated serialization, encryption, JSON over REST
  • Experience shaping downstream analytics/dashboard requirements via instrumentation design
  • Hands-on LLM/AI agent prototyping with model switching and in-engine benchmarking (latency vs app weight vs cost)
  • Early spatial multiplayer prototype on HoloLens 1 with shared-scene synchronization over LAN using interpolation and Windows device discovery
