I'm a gameplay programmer with 3+ years of industry experience working on AAA games.

​

Since 2024 I have been working at Playground Games in Leamington Spa, UK.​

​

From 2022 to 2024 I was employed with Climax Studios in Portsmouth, UK as a programmer for Age of Empires IV: Anniversary Edition for Xbox and then a PS5 AAA title that has not yet been released.

​

My professional experience has consisted of work in gameplay, UI, AI, graphics, and porting for MacOS, Xbox One, Xbox Series and PS5.

​

I hold a first class honours degree in Computer Games (Software Development) from Solent University where I excelled in all modules and took a particular interest in AI after a placement year with Feral Interactive. For my dissertation, 'Life Simulation Game Incorporating Director AI', I completed a final major project inspired by this interest and influenced by the utility AI from games such as Left 4 Dead and Alien: Isolation.

​

The main languages I have worked with are C++, C#​, SCAR (Lua), XAML, Java, and Python. I also have experience with C, Blueprints and SQL.
