As part of Treyarch's core multiplayer gameplay team, I work on imperative features and systems under NDA.

One chilly LA winter, I pitched an idea to Richard Lemarchand (Uncharted, Jak & Daxter):
A fast-paced heist game that is a single level long; a gameplay loop so addicting, and with systems so enticing, that players can't resist playing this one level over and over and over again.

As Lead Designer on Skylost, I managed and directed a team of 3 designers (level, gameplay/systems, and UI) including the industrious Aviel. This was among a student team of over 30.

Together, we worked diligently for a full year, and ultimately shipped a 3D, open-world, action-adventure game which became a featured selection of the 2022 USC Games Expo.

Death Tennis is my first, full-featured, shipped game. I began work on it with my younger brother, Rishi, in 2019.


At the time, I was an undergraduate student still figuring out what I wanted to do after the fast-approaching graduation. Rishi was a high school junior with an interest in programming.

Neither of us knew anything officially about making a game or design. As fans of the medium, we followed what felt right and persisted through each challenge: starting with fun movement and interested visuals and gradually building outwards.

This is arguably the most formative game I have worked on.

In November 2020, I pitched an idea for a card game in front of my class.



This was part of a pitch competition, where our peers would vote for the games they would most like to work on, thereby also greenlighting the projects they were most passionate about.

My pitch was as followed: a romance, party, card game.

I developed this 3D renderer purely in C++, drawing RGB values directly onto a screen buffer. All matrix manipulation, shading, and processing was done by me from scratch using no framework or API.

Supports .asc models, multiple cameras, Phong and Gourard shading, UV mapping, anti-aliasing.

Developed during Dr. Neumann's Fall 2020 CSCI-532 class.

My time at Michigan State University largely revolved around the numerous and excellent campus dining halls.

From the post-modernist Case Hall to the industrial Brody, the options were plentiful, and the distances between long, cold, and trecherous (especially during the brutal Michigan winters).

Combine that with classes spread all over the 5,200-acre Land Grant campus, choosing where to eat and when can be among the most important decisions of the day.

One evening while having dinner at Case, my friend Philip and I considered a simple app that would make this easy for us:
