About

I'm a developer passionate about creating innovative solutions that bridge the gap between complex problems and elegant implementations. My work spans from practical applications like gaming tools to theoretical research in physics.

Currently based in Plano, TX, I enjoy exploring diverse projects that challenge conventional thinking. Whether it's building RPG dice rollers for tabletop gaming communities or developing libraries for advanced mathematical computations, I'm driven by curiosity and the desire to make complex systems accessible.

My background includes research in theoretical physics, where I developedGHGFort - a Fortran library for the Generalized Harmonic Gauge formulation of General Relativity. This work represents my commitment to advancing computational tools for scientific research.

When I'm not coding, you can find me exploring new technologies, contributing to open-source projects, or diving deep into the latest developments in software engineering and scientific computing.
