A semester-long VR project produced in Montreal, QC. In Eos, you create a solar system from scratch, and are able to explore and interact with it from the scale of a sun down to the size of a creature on each planet you create.

My focuses included:

• Overall architecture of the codebase
• Implementing about half of the gameplay mechanics and systems
• Implementing visual effects with the artists and creating Unity Editor tools for the designers

Less of a game and more of a tech demo, this downloadable piece is an interactive demonstration of my interpretation of Context Behaviors as described by Andrew Frey. This was part of the AI "research" project, where we were able to dive into any topic in game AI, whether we had covered it in class or not, and create a demo. I chose to look deeper into Steering Behaviors and alternatives to Steering, and found this really cool topic that I am looking forward to using in a real game project.

A joint project between Champlain College's Emergent Media Center and the Burlington International Airport. Developed in Unity with the Xbox Kinect 2.0. This interactive experience is designed to be approachable and inviting to anyone passing through the airport, and is on display as a semi-permanent art installation in the North concourse of BTV.

My focuses included:

• All gameplay and AI programming
• Implementing and documenting Unity Editor tools for future teams
