About

I'm a sophomore at the University of Texas at Dallas. I enjoy problem-solving and coding. I'm an eager learner of anything and I always strive to bring 100% to the work I do. I have worked using languages like Java, Python, C/C++, and C# using technologies like LWJGL, OpenGL, Keras, and Unity, etc during my programming experience. I am passionate about developing applications that solve real world issues that occur at the unique intersection of physics, math, and computer science.

I am looking for an opportunity to learn more about the fields of AI, Software Development, game development, as well as learn as much as I can about everything computer science!

Languages:Java, Python, C/C++, C#, SQL
Libraries:LWJGL, OpenGL, Keras, Numpy, Tensorflow
Frameworks:Unity Engine

Yope3D

A C++20 Vulkan game engine from scratch — physics, 3D rendering, scripting, UI, and an in-house ImGui editor. Initially an old Java engine.

A 240 Hz fixed timestep rigid body simulation independent of rendering, on its own thread
Vulkan based backend, with raster and compute-raytrace modes
Per-entity Python behaviors via an embedded pybind11 module, with params loaded into the Editor GUI
6 Catch2 test suites (math, physics, ECS, glTF, text, packaging), most fully headless
