"Truth is stranger than fiction, but it is because Fiction is obliged to stick to possibilities; Truth isn't." - Mark Twain

Hi. I am a professional game developer known for creating NikNak. My background is in engineering, UI/UX, and product design. I am especially good at graphics programming (3D graphics), which is a neat interdisciplinary field that combines math, art, and programming.

A bit about myself:

  1. I enjoy figuring out how things work. In every system, there are knobs that you can turn, and gears that are affected. Sometimes, there are second and third order effects as well.

  2. I really like weird things. Often I feel like I am on auto-pilot or very sleepy. But when I experience weird things (anything that subverts expections) it snaps me out, which is fun.

  3. I enjoy finding humor in life. To me, life feels like flipping through a deck of cards, or watching scenes from a movie, or being hit with deus ex machinas. So, it is often funny and ironic.

I majored in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science @ MIT. Before that, I majored in Piano @ Dreyfoos School of the Arts and was a concert pianist. My WPM is over 150.
