I'm building Convergence, a cooperative action RPG centered on throwable, recallable, and combinable magical orbs. I design and implement its combat, abilities, targeting, status effects, and data-driven gameplay systems in Unreal Engine 5.

I use advanced Blueprints to rapidly prototype mechanics and turn validated ideas into reusable gameplay architecture, including modular targeting, delivery, trigger, effect, and modifier behaviors. I also work with GAS, Actor Components, interfaces, and Codex-assisted C++ integration when native functionality is useful.

I also created Lodestone, a location-based Android app built with Flutter and Firebase, and bring 15 years of retail leadership experience in team development, operational problem-solving, and managing competing priorities.
