About Me

Hey! I'm Katie, a Games Developer and Programmer living in the south of England. For work, I love to tackle projects that I have a genuine connection to and that challenge me, such as developing virtual and augmented reality experiences. I also really working with hardware such as micro controllers and PCB design. When I'm not working, I am almost always hyper-fixating on what is usually a very random and complicated project. Some notable examples include Keith, my WIP AI assistant, and The GitHub Button, a tool for automatically summarizing Git commits, or any of my hardware projects including an immobiliser, radio detection system, and my entire car! I also play a lot of video games, with some personal favorites being Pavlov VR, Satisfactory, and Ready or Not.

On a more relevant note, I have extensive experience with a variety of tools, including the Adobe Creative Suite, Blender, 3DSMax, Unity, and Unreal Engine. I am also proficient in numerous programming languages, including C#, Python, Java, and C++. Additionally, I am familiar with various Linux distros such as Ubuntu, Arch, and Debian and have somewhat of a lab at home. Through this, I have gained experience with various backend frameworks like MariaDB, MySQL, Docker, and NGINX.

In general, I like to think of myself as an extremely varied and creative person and am more than happy to spend several hours talking about my interests and passions with others. Thanks for reading this and taking the time to check out my portfolio!
