Work History: |
Team Producer and Instructor, University of Redlands, Redlands, CA 2007-2008
Over the period of two semesters, I designed, created, and taught a 4-credit course at the University of Redlands called All-Access Video
Game Design. The course combined 17 programmers, artists, and writers into a large team that simulated the real video game environment.
The students had various skill levels, and so instructing less experienced programmers was necessary. I performed all software engineering
and planning for the entire game structure before the class began, assigning individual team leaders to distribute each week’s work. I also
monitored all progress – which meant fixing bugs, resolving conflicts, creating a solid team atmosphere, and organizing progress.
Visual Resources Coordinator, University of Redlands, Redlands, CA 2005-2008
I was in charge of keeping the LunaImaging Insight server up and running and training others in how to use it. Above all else, this required
computer troubleshooting ability and adaptability; I needed to use Java, Apache, MySQL, and many other technologies.
Trip Leader, Adventures Cross Country, Mill Valley, CA and Costa Rica 2008
Responsible for leading 15 high school students on a 21-day outdoor service trip to Costa Rica. This involves being accountable for all
medical matters, transportation, group dynamics, planning itinerary, and providing anything else that the participants may need.
Web Programmer and Designer, Freelance 2007
I enhanced other people’s PHP/HTML/MySQL code as well as created full websites from scratch for various clients. This meant requirements gathering, software engineering, and programming. I also interacted with customers, met deadlines, and addressed complications
with different types of software (MSSQL vs MySQL, ASP vs PHP, etc.).

playing game engine and level editor. My senior project in college, “Agent: 00PK,” is a physics-heavy side-scrolling stealth game that was
built from scratch in Java with LWJGL (Lightweight Java Game Library). It has over 40 performable moves, cheats, a level editor, and more.
