Hi, my name is
About Me
I’m a software engineer with more than 13 years of experience making games, backend services and cloud infrastructures. I have worked in different industries: FinTech, Robotics, Datascience and Games.
My journey into multiplayer games started very young. My earliest gaming memories were with my older cousin, while playing Skitchin’ and Bio-Hazard Battle in split-screen on his Sega MegaDrive.
Later, in High School, all of my friends where PC gamers: it was a real LAN parties paradise! We played the hell out of the Diablos, Counter-Strike, DoTA, … to cite only a few! At the same time, we also discovered MMORPG with The 4Th Coming and started building our first online community. People I have met there became some of my closest friends.
That’s why I love making multiplayer games:
I want to create deep and engaging experiences, where communities can thrive and friends can be made.
