Mobile Development

My extracurricular development started in the beggining of my college career with a desire to create mobile applications. Today, my passion for mobile apps led to a few successfully launched applications to the store.

Virtual Reality

VR is the future and I want to be there. I love and imagine the potential Virtual Reality has for society. Making the impossible possible.

Game Programming

I dreamt of becoming a game developer since I started playing video games. My ultimate goal is to some day build a game development company one step at a time and to hopefully gamify life.

Fraternity

Sigma Nu Fraternity Inc. is really important to me. Sigma Nu taught me important lessons in life like leadership, social, networking, and organization skills. I took many leadership roles for the chapter including President, Recorder, and Scholarship Chair.

Adventure

Traveling the world is essential to my life. I love camping, road trips, and experiencing nature. I enjoy outdoor activities like paintballing, bike riding, and music festivals. My goal is to travel to all the countries in the world and if not all, most.

The Process

Most of the projects are done with agile project management and teamwork.

Scrumban

Scrumban is a combination of the team managements methodologies Scrum and Kanban.

During Scrumban we plan weekly sprints. We perform "stand ups" to demo what we've worked on for that week and present any blockers that hinder our performance to help team synchrony. We focus our work by creating individualized project paths. We iterate continuously until our goals are met. And in the end we review ourselves, what worked best for us and what can we improve on.

Collaboration

Teamwork is essential to building that dream product. Sharing the adventure of delivering something that truely matters with teammates that care is the most rewarding experience that I cherish. I don't know where I would be without the help of my friends.
