DESTINY 2

BUNGIE   |   Sept 2016 - Present

I specialized in final implementation of UI designs in major areas of the game such as the HUD, player equip/inventory screens, and all NPC screens. This included everything from technical tasks, such as hooking up data to UI, adjusting shaders, and enabling the UI to dynamically react to a variety of content, to creative tasks such as making everything pixel perfect and beautifully animated.

I transitioned into a leadership role December 2018 and now serve a small team of incredibly talented cross-discipline professionals.
