I've had previous roles that include the following disciplines: Level/Scenery design in both 2D and 3D environments, data analysis, quality assurance and bug tracking, tools design, testing, GIS, map making, and managing strict deadlines. I have been a part of several AAA titles utilizing the Flight Simulator Game Engine. I've also spent time in a startup environments with Cascade Game Foundry and Flyte Center Inc creating high detail game environments for immersive gameplay.

Outside of work I enjoy creating and playing music , playing a variety of sports, playing video games (PC,Mobile,Console), and spending time with those who strike me as awesome and interesting.
