Profile: https://flows.cv/ericbarrett

I'm passionate about Computer Graphics, Virtual Reality, and building new and delightful User Experiences. I'm excited to use my skills to contribute in those spaces and grow into a better me.

I believe building and creating is one of the most rewarding things you can do. The journey of going from a rough idea to finely tuning the details is something I strive for. My passion for creating along with a lifelong love for technology has led me to Software Engineering, where I am constantly learning and expanding what I’m capable of building. Through my school and work experiences I unexpectedly discovered that I love building with others even more than on my own and have learned that I thrive in competitive and collaborative environments.
