In my spare time I have fun playing games, spending time on Twitch and catching up with friends.

Below you can find some projects I've worked on in the past."

C#, Scrum/Agile, Git, DSL

iVi was a 6 month project requested by the Immunity and Infection department of the Universitair Medisch Centrum Utrecht (UMCU).

iVi tests the players' knowledge of the immune system, teaching and bringing active discussions to classes.
The game gives the player different cases in which a person has an infection. These varying infections are dealt with by selecting the correct immune responses.

In addition to implementing features, I worked as the lead on game design.
