What I'm looking for

I seek a role in a fast-paced, innovative company where I can apply my game-dev technical skills and crypto trading interest, collaborate cross-functionally, and grow into greater responsibility.

I am an early-career professional with a postgraduate diploma in Computer Games Development and a strong interest in crypto trading, combining technical game-development experience with meticulous stakeholder and customer-facing skills. I have led team projects in simulated studio environments, developed a modular RPG prototype, and gained hands-on experience with Unreal Engine 4/5, Unity, C++, and C#.

I bring practical workplace experience from roles in cleaning operations, security at a major airport, and data management internships where I coordinated clients and installation teams. I am organised, detail-focused, comfortable in fast-paced settings, and seek to contribute to innovative businesses while continuing to grow my technical and trading expertise.
