However, his interest in games started long before that, taking him from engine to engine before finally settling. This enthusiasm, along with his masters in computer science, gave him a broad knowledge of programming and AI, which he now applies in his day job as a lead game developer and technical artist of a studio that uses the Godot Engine.
