About Me

I am a Software Engineer III at the Electronic Arts - Tiburon studio in Orlando, FL. I have been working there since November 2005. I recently finished up Madden 11 for the Wii, and Madden NFL Arcade, an XBOX Live Arcade/PSN downloadable game for the 360 and PS3. I'm currently working as a Lead Software Engineer on an unannounced project for the 360 and PS3. You can see all of the games I've worked on during my time at Tiburon on the games page. You can find Tiburon's website here.


I have been working in the game industry for about 8 years now. I attended Full Sail, a school in Orlando, FL and took their Game Programming and Development course. I worked as a lab instructor at the school for about a year before getting my first game programming job. Prior to working for EA, I worked on a number of smaller games for a touch-screen game company in Philadelphia, PA called Merit Industries. You can check out their website here. You can also see the games I worked on at Merit on the games page.


Aside from work, I enjoy playing sports (softball, basketball, golfing), traveling, jogging, poker, food, and spending time with my family and friends.



Side Projects

I work on few side projects now, but I will post some from time to time on this site. I've done some XNA and iPhone work recently. I've worked with PHP and done some freelance web development as well, but most of my programming side projects are game related. I also enjoy creating art and music, although I don't do it very often. I will post finished projects as I complete them on the projects page for view and/or download, so check them out if you get a chance.
