my projects

Mecha Knights 3D Modeling

I created a large number of 3D models and textures under contract for the steam title Mecha Knights: Nightmare and its subsequent DLC, Operation Ascalon. This included weapons, armour, and modular setpieces.

House of Commons Digital Twin Project

I worked with the House of Commons for several years to develop a 1:1 recreation of Ottawa's downtown core in Unreal Engine. I worked on model and texture creation for buildings and environments, custom tool development for asset management, as well as extensive work on profiling and optimization.

Unreal Traffic Plugin

An Unreal Engine plugin which simulates traffic flow on a spline network. This project currently implements autonomous vehicle flow while incorporating traffic light cycles, crossing signals, turn lane restrictions, stopping distance, indicator lights, pathfinding, and more! The plugin will be available soon on the Unreal marketplace

Forager's Pass

My upcoming steam title and environment design showcase: Explore a cozy mill in the heart of the forest, collecting plants to uncover the area's mystery

Karnawall Fantasy City Texture Synthesizer

A fully parametrized c++ texture sysnthesis system for creating background map textures. Uses a custom subdivision tree, graph pathfinding with real-world inspired heuristics, and a sampling system to apply hand-drawn textures according to roof normals and directional lighting.

Ottawa Rewound

An interactive exploration of Ottawa's history, using 3D visualization to reconstruct a region's past in real-time

Ivykeep

A multiyear worldbuilding project with over one hundred articles, including a detailed 3D worldmap powered by Google's model-viewer framework

Cyber-O

A c++ conversion software to generate 3D DEM data from vector based topological maps with missing numerical elevation data. Uses a series of algorithims to reconstruct contour heights based on neighbouring features and vector similarities.
