About & Skills
Hello! I'm Brandon, a programmer and technical artist with a deep passion for real-time graphics and game development. From writing low-level rendering code to architecting gameplay systems, I thrive on solving complex problems to create performant and visually stunning interactive experiences.
My journey started with a fascination for how games create their worlds, which led me to get a B.A. in Arts, Technology, and Emerging Communications – Animation and Games and a minor in Computer Science, and a career dedicated to understanding and mastering the technology behind them.
