About

AI/ML enthusiast and practitioner who turns caffeine into innovative solutions (and occasionally, into questionable code). Ex-coder turned everything-doer because why stick to one thing when you can complicate your life with multiple projects? Currently juggling: - building AI that tells stories (OMEA) - teaching avatars & robots sign language (Migam) - probably starting three new projects while you read this Gamedev creator who thinks board games should be smarter than their players (see: Beyond Humanity). Robotics engineer because someone needs to prevent the robot uprising by making them friendly first. Drone enthusiast (translation: professional crash-tester). Jack of all trades, master of... getting things done somehow. Firm believer that ADHD is a superpower when properly caffeinated. Known for: - building stuff that shouldn't work but does - turning "impossible" into "give me a week" - converting coffee into code - making AI do things its creators didn't think of - starting sentences with "what if we..." WARNING May spontaneously start talking about AI, robots, or hiking adventures. Side effects include innovative solutions and questionable dad jokes.

      As CEO of AImmersive Inc. (creator of the Omea app), I'm leading our mission to redefine interactive entertainment by bridging the gap between premium storytelling and true player freedom. We've built AIM, our proprietary Narrative Intelligence Architecture - a specialized AI model trained exclusively on novels and designed to deliver cinema-quality narratives that genuinely respond to player choices, something traditional LLMs simply couldn't achieve. Our voice-controlled narrative gaming platform demonstrated strong engagement during our recent soft launch, with players spending remarkable amounts of time immersed in our stories. We're not just creating another mobile game; we're pioneering a new category of meaningful entertainment that makes players feel something beyond a sore thumb. Now, as we head toward our hard launch, we're preparing to bring HBO-quality storytelling directly to players' pockets. Our platform offers true narrative freedom - where your choices shape unique adventures, not predetermined paths. The future of gaming isn't about mindless tapping - it's about stories you can live, not just watch.
