Software engineer with a passion for both technology and visual art (and physics). I’m dedicated to building large scale distributed data pipelines ingesting petabytes of data for Microsoft clients and devices (yes all the big words).

Redmond, Washington, United States

Instead of crash dumps, I now focus on logs ingestion for Microsoft clients and devices at massive scale. We built features to help converge client (worldwide) and service telemetry (in Azure). This enables our customers to stitch data together for a more cohesive analytics experience (think Xbox player stats + server side game logs). I also actively worked on solving architectural issues of noisy neighbor problems.

2018 — 2019

Grinnell, Iowa

Built immersive experiences (for education purpose) in historical settings using Unity and VRTK

Designed and implemented object interactions and the inventory system with interesting take on gesture controls

Lead numerous “body”storming sessions where we mock up creative means of teleportation, control panel, item collection and object interaction, with paper, pen and other physical objects. These sessions were aimed at prototyping an interaction system that’s interactive while also in congruence with the historical context.

This was an amazing project experience. Message me if you wanna know more! (Or if you’re a like-minded VR/Game Dev enthusiast)
