Passionate Entry-Level Game Developer with a solid foundation in Unity.
What I'm looking for
I am an enthusiastic Entry-Level Game Developer with a strong foundation in Unity and C#. My passion lies in creating immersive gameplay experiences and optimizing performance for mobile platforms. I have been fortunate to receive admission into one of America's top Computer Science universities, Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology, Indiana, with a scholarship of over $40,000 per year starting this fall.
During my time as a Team Lead Supervisor at e-Yantra, IIT Bombay, I led a team in the e-Yantra Jr Innovation Challenge, where we developed the Krashi Vikas Web App. This project aimed to revolutionize precision agriculture by providing farmers with advanced 3D modeling tools. Additionally, I was the Lead Developer for a therapeutic video game for ADHD, which won the MyGov Gamathon and represented India at CHI PLAY 21'. My research experience at the Indian Institute of Science involved mathematical modeling in crop production, showcasing my ability to blend technology with real-world applications.
