With over 20 years of experience in Development and IT both for modern and embedded systems (micro devices), your project is in good hands. My focus has been on creating flexible code for games and other applications, however I am open to helping with any of your programming or IT needs. I'm well versed in web development and deployment, whether it's for a simple website or a web app involving inventory tracking, I can help. I have worked on a number of personal gaming projects including puzzle and action games (in Java & Unity). I have also worked on the release of a Nintendo DS game, where I was responsible for creating the game engine. I look forward to working with you on your web application, data scraping, unity game, or any other programming needs.
