I'm a game developer

Work with meSee my experience

Games, websites and smoother change.

I have over 15 years of experience in web development, game development and organizational change management. Today my focus is cutting-edge 3D game development in Unreal Engine 5, where I build immersive first-person worlds for PC. I started in mobile and hyper-casual games, and one of those has passed 20 million downloads. I have also supported the World Bank Group and the International Finance Corporation with e-learning, knowledge management and technology adoption. I connect technical work with clear communication so projects get results.
