Hello, I'm Gary. I'm a tech enthusiast with a passion for programming and continuous learning. What drives me is the challenge of turning ideas into functional, elegant solutions. I enjoy solving problems and am always looking for ways to improve performance, simplify code, and make things work better. For me, programming is not just a skill, but also a creative outlet. Every project, no matter how big, is an opportunity to grow and discover new tools. I am inspired by the endless possibilities that technology offers and what we can achieve through collaboration.

"Die Zusammenarbeit mit Gary hat mein Verständnis als Grafik Designerin für die Schnittstelle zwischen Design und Programmierung nachhaltig geprägt.
Er ist ein Brückenbauer mit Code – jemand, der kreative Vision und technische Umsetzung in Einklang bringt und damit neue Möglichkeiten eröffnet. Zusammenarbeit jederzeit wieder gern!"
"It is very rare to have in one person such a complete skill set. He was an extremely dedicated employee who was always thinking about his projects and coming up with improvements — even outside of office hours. His excitement was contagious!"
"Gary did the "heavy lifting" on the programming side on projects for Universal Orlando and an internal project called Wayzon. I would recommend Gary to anyone looking for a highly adept programmer."
"He is valuable from a creative and from a developer stand point. Also he is always determined to complete projects regardless of the challenges that may be present."
"He is a multi-talented individual and would bring many benefits to any team, whether it's his programming skills, art, creativity or thinking outside the box to resolve complex issues. He has a unique determination to get to the root causes of problems and resolve them in the most efficient way."
"I know that his programming skills are superior because there weren't any modifications he couldn't do, and his final projects were always better than our expectations."

My team from the Developer Akademie was asked to build an app as a group project, using Angular and Firebase. It's a task manager inspired by the Kanban System. Create and organize tasks using drag and drop functions, assign users and categories.
Crab Tropics
The Developer Akademie had us write a game. I was homesick, so I chose a beach theme for mine.
Historical Atlas
I finally got around to making my historical globe app.
Melt Shader
Steven asked me to write a melting effect shader for his upcoming shmup title for android and iOS.
Shield Shader
Steven asked me to write a shield shader for his upcoming shmup title for Android and iOS.
Concept Art
I made some new concept art for my project.
Mobile Sprite Animation App
Today I found my old Android project and updated it to run on 13.
Modifying the RG405m KeyMapper
I received my rg405m last week. Overall, I'm impressed with its quality. There is a built in button mapper, which allows for button to touch functionality.
Toon Grass Auto-Blending
Something that bothers me about grass are the hard edges at the roots. I'd seen some pigmentation solutions which were tedious, so I created a shader that can blend the grass with the terrain automatically.
Character Creator
A toon character creator, using Blender blendshapes. (WIP)
Mesh Clouds
A mesh cloud renderer. (WIP)
Planetary Gravity
Daniel had and idea for mobile game about a chimp, lost in space. He asked me to help him design a prototype in Godot.
2.5D Physics
For a new project, I wanted to go with a 2.5d solution. Unfortunately, for optimization, Unity does not allow the rotation of terrains and mesh-based terrains wouldn't be ideal. In order to allow for exciting background scenery, while keeping the illusion of a 2D game, movement along a spline would be important.
WooCommerce Custom Import / Export
WooCommerce comes with limted data import and export capabilities. Fortunately, it is easily extendable.
WooCommerce Fast Checkout
With proper caching, WooCommerce can be sped up, but dynamic database queries remain slow, especially for sites with a large number of SKUs. Because of a flaw in how Wordpress handles meta data, searching can come to a crawl at critical moments, such as during the checkout of large orders.
