Hey!

I’m a recent first class Newcastle university game programming graduate currently working as a Junior Game Dev at Tombola!

I mainly specialise in c++ programming but have experience in a few disciplines such as Typescript and c#, regardless whatever the job is I’m hoping to find a great group of people to continue learning and growing as a developer with!

Since my Graduation I have been taking the time to learn more about the Unity and Unreal 4 game dev engines alongside keeping my c++ skill sharp, hopefully I’ll have some projects from said engines here in the near future!
