INDIVIDUAL PROJECTS:
*Game Engine Project:* After completing the UW Game Development Certification program, a few people from the program and I decided to use the information we were taught to build our own game engine. Two of the people are software developers from Microsoft and one of them is a UW Computer Engineering student. I am learning a lot more about coding from working with actual professional developers.
*C++ and Java Programs:* I have coded a .MAP exporter which reads geometry from a 3D modeling tool and converts it into a form our game engine can understand. I have also created an octree-creator which partitions our static game geometry to speed up the rendering process.
