About Me

I really want to make the world more equitable with technology, and I believe I can do that by developing software that aids in helping other neurodivergent individuals learn key pieces of information that a standard curriculum cannot teach. My experience with video game and film development aids in my quest to find different forms of media to teach at-risk individuals and make the learning actually fun and engaging.
