About

Senior Software Developer / Team Lead focused on systems programming, architecture, reverse engineering, emulation and graphics. I've been building software from scratch since the early 1990s, including emulators, parsers, networking stacks, introspection frameworks, a 2D game framework and a 3D/physics engine.

My current experiment, explores whether existing 3D games can be treated as source programs: reverse-engineered into an engine-independent Intermediate Representation and executed by a runtime independent of their original engines.

Interested in graphics programming, game engines, compilers/IRs, reverse engineering, emulation and low-level systems.
