I was working with Merck as a junior consultant from Diversant. I was straight out of community college where I was going for video game develeopment. My instructor was the one who got me and two other classmates the opportunity. We were hired as "Unity experts" being that the innovation team we worked with had little to no experience with it.

We worked with the innovation team where we developed a couple prototype applications for Hololens for internal use with their scientists.

Projects

• Model Viewer (Hololens): The first project we worked on was basically a model viewer. Thier use cases were to be able to allow their scientist to view 3D molecules and place 3D objects in an empty room to plan a new room's layout. This was my first time working with communicating with a server via REST where all the models were located. They were downloaded as Unity Packages and loaded during runtime and can be moved around and scaled.
• Colony Counter (Hololens): The second project we worked on was a colony counter. The idea is for scientists to be able to snap a picture of a petri dish and communicate with their server where they had an AI count the colonies in the dish. It then returned the count and would show the count and image as a floating window.
• VR Tour (Oculus Go / Google Street View): The final project was a VR tour that we continued from the last team that was working on it. It was a tour of thier Austin location via 360 images they took. It also had videos (one 360 and one traditional) that played a tour of Austin. Later we decided to set up a Google Street View as well that I worked on. Thier Praque location later had us set up a tour of their location on Google Street View as well.

As you may notice from my work, I am also a gamer. My favorite kinds are RTS, FPS, open-world, and randomly/procedually generated games. I tend to not play many different games however, do end up playing games a lot. I have a tendancy to shift in habits and I would play a lot of games and over time would shift to more development and do more of that. So I'm more of an off/on kind of gamer/developer in my spare time rather than splitting time evenly.

I don't really have a favorite game specifically but what is definitely one of my most played games is Monster Hunter: World. I've been a fan of the series since Freedom Unite and have played every other main title except Generations before World. I have also enjoyed Returnal with its fast paced gameplay and map design that is very similar to my random map generator that I've worked on.

I've never played many board games growing up until I found some friends that do. Now that I have finally tried some more modern ones, I have become more insterested in board games as well.

I enjoy cars and have a 2015 Mustang GT that I drive as a daily driver. I'm not exactly an expert on cars but, I do clean and change the oil on my car myself. I got it pretty loaded with options with all the ones that didn't remove any parts from the options I already had. The only option I didn't get that didn't change anything else from the other options was the Adaptive Cruise Control with rain sensing wipers.
