Employment
Experience
- Golve
Golve is a multi-screen mini golf application for Android. By placing multiple devices next to each other, users can create their own custom golf courses. Once the game is started, the ball seamlessly rolls from one device to the other.
Golve was created to showcase the underlying Unclouded framework. It was awarded as a finalist of the Mobile Monday Appsmarathon in September 2013. - 3D Create & Print
For Eaglemoss Publications (London, UK), I developed both a Windows and Mac OSX application as part of their 3D Create & Print Collection. The application offers a complete suite for 3D printing objects using the V3 Printer designed by Sebastian Conran. With a strong focus on simplicity, the main goal of the application is to deliver a 3D printing experience as straightforward and magical as possible.
