About

A bit about me

I'm David — a developer and lifelong gamer based in Richmond, Virginia. I build things that interest me, from multiplayer RPGs to automation bots to achievement unlockers. Most of my work lives onGitHub.

Background

Gaming is what got me into programming. I wanted to understand how the things I loved were made — that curiosity turned into building my own games, tools, and platforms.

My main project is The Room, a multiplayer RPG platform with 15 games, 249 achievements, a full economy, and tournaments. It started as a C++ desktop application and grew into a React web client sharing the same Firebase backend.

Outside of that, I build whatever catches my attention: dual-curriculum math practice, trading-card arbitrage, Flutter mobile experiments, WhatsApp automation, AI asset pipelines, reverse-engineering tools, and game systems from scratch.
