I build real-time 3D systems —
and the instrumentation that proves they're fast.
Ten years across CAD/CAM, XR, and rendering. Most of my best work has been measurement infrastructure: the head tracking latency tooling on HoloLens 2 and IVAS, GPU compute that made cutback surface manipulation real-time in a production CAD pipeline, and trace instrumentation that caught two async tasks quietly sharing one worker thread — contention nothing but tooling would have found.
What I work on
Real-time graphics
Vulkan, OpenGL, and OpenXR. Renderers, shader tooling, stereo XR pipelines, and the geometry math underneath them — quaternion camera systems, projection, mesh processing.
Performance & measurement
Instrumenting systems that can't be conventionally debugged, then optimizing from captured timelines instead of intuition. Latency tooling, Chrome-trace analysis, GPU compute.
Systems in production
Eight years shipping CAD/CAM software where geometry errors become physical defects, plus tech lead and mentoring work on a team that had to keep delivering.
