• Built novel XR+AI Prototypes in a custom C++ game engine with Python scripting to enable complex voice-command-driven interactions within an immersive 6DoF experience.

• Designed an Alexa-like AI Assistant using structured outputs from OpenAI, integrating FasterWhisper for real-time transcription and Google Voice for output.

• Created a Secure Command-Chain System where AI selected safe, validated in-app actions, delivered via JSON data serialization between the assistant and game engine.

• Developed a Smart Translator for seamless multilingual communication during VR phone calls.

• Prototyped a virtual clay sculpting demo utilizing a time-of-flight (ToF) sensor, which processes over 400,000 depth points with concurrent, vectorized voxel collision for real-time hand-based sculpting. Performance profiling led to a frame rate optimization with 90fps even with the maximum number of collisions happening simultaneously.

• Contributed to funding milestones by rapidly delivering high-impact prototypes.

• Built features for the game Peridot on top of Niantic’s Lightship semantic segmentation library

• Gave talks about our Convolutional Neural Net and how we use it at AWE and GDC

• Built & maintained various data manipulation tools to aid design & development – breeding system tool, build-a-dot tool, & game constants editor

• Full-stack planning, development, and shipping of features spanning UI, server, & data design

• Headed feature dev for systems such as breeding, genetics, matchmaking, spectacles, foraging

• Server engineering in Java, utilizing Redis and Spanner

• Building reliable, future-proofed user data formats using Protocol Buffers

• Backwards compatibility development for V2s of these systems

• Client engineering in Unity3D C#

• Led design of STRIVR Player, a VR headset training client written in Unity3D C# for Oculus, Go, Daydream, Gear, Pico.

• Created STRIVR Creator, a desktop tool for designers to build training content.

• Architected JSON data format read by STRIVR Player and written by STRIVR Creator.

• Published a chapter in “Creating Augmented & Virtual Realities” under O’Reilly Media.

• Built and led the team to create an award-winning AR data visualization platform called Immersive Insights, written in Unity3D C# for HoloLens. This allowed scientists to use existing tools like R Studio to visualize their data in real-time, in 3D.

• Server architecture allowed usage of any data source for geo-scatterplot visualization.

• Multi-user architecture allowed many clients to view and interact with the same data.
