I am a gameplay programmer with hands-on experience building game features in C++ using Unreal Engine 4 and 5 for both studio and freelance projects.

Across roles in Italy and Spain, I shipped gameplay systems and collaborated within production teams I combine technical game-development skills with disciplined process and documentation practices.
