Background
Elysium Health
Engineering internship building a React Native mobile app prototype and AI product assistant. Implemented health safeguards to avoid medical claims, integrated knowledge retrieval, and built tool-calling functionality for supplement recommendations.
Everplast
I started building software in high school, teaching myself GDScript and the Godot engine to build Everplast: a full-length action-adventure game that I shipped to Steam at 16 years old. Eight months of solo development: four worlds, five weapons, boss AI, a rank-based progression system, a full save system, and the entire Steam publishing pipeline. So, what happens when you scope a project way too big and have to figure out how to ship it anyway?
Currently
I am still continuing to work on future project updates with Zero Authority. There are also communications with new clients, so more projects will be coming soon. Meanwhile, I continue studying in my last year of University.
Finally, I am working on a ground-up recreation of the original Super Mario Bros. in Godot, built under one constraint. No Nintendo sprites can be distributed.
