My development journey started with hardcore Source Engine (Portal 2) modding, where I specialized in pushing the technical limits of an old engine. I managed to implement mechanics the community deemed impossible for 15 years: such as portal-aware ray tracing, an asynchronous event scheduler, PBR lighting integration, and even cheap volumetrics without using a depth buffer. My philosophy is rooted in pragmatism: creating robust tools in Rust and squeezing every last drop out of severely constrained environments, prioritizing a killer Developer Experience (DX) to the best of my ability.
Moving forward, my focus is on engineering high-performance systems and architectural nightmares. I love squeezing the absolute maximum out of the CPU, memory, and, with any luck, the payroll. :P
But don't just take my word for it. Let my projects speak for themselves:
