What I'm looking for

I’m looking to build reliable software with clean UI and strong integrations, while owning features end-to-end. I want a team that values honesty and professionalism and offers room to grow in JavaScript, C++, and VR/Unity.

I’m a software engineer with three years of full-time experience at Evans & Sutherland (a Cosm company), where I helped build planetarium software used worldwide. I developed the UI using C# and .NET and created a C++ powered JavaScript integration that let users power and operate planetariums with JavaScript.

I also worked on system automation, including backup automation and miscellaneous remote system control, plus a backup utility for multi-computer planetarium systems. I’m serious about workplace honesty, integrity, and professionalism, and I care deeply about communication and being a valued team member—backed by hands-on projects across Android, VR, C++, OpenGL, and interactive visualization.
