Experimenting with Particle Systems, Lighting, and VFX in Blender
Title: Campfire Establishing Shot
Tools: Blender
I created this stylized campfire scene as a personal project to learn more about particle systems, lighting, and VFX in Blender. Through a combination of YouTube tutorials and experimentation, I built an animated fire with embers, as well as sparks that are generated by a character sharpening her blade in the background. I also explored emissive materials and point light bouncing to create atmospheric nighttime lighting and the illusion of firelight reflecting off the trees.

Virtual Checkers Board Game
Programming Language: Java
This project is a virtual checkers board game. I made it for my Software Development Foundations class. It's runnable using IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition 2024.1.1 (IDE), JDK17 (programming language), and Junit 4.12 (testing framework).

TTRPG Character Species Quiz
Programming Language: C++
This project is a virtual, 10 question quiz for TTRPG players that are creating a character and have not decided on a species yet. I made it for fun, and it's still a work in progress. I plan to create more functions to help condense/clean up the code in main. I also plan to move questions and their corresponding answer data into a vector of objects to make storage and accessibility more efficient. The quiz is runnable using Visual Studio Code 1.107.1 (IDE), C++17 (programming language), and mingw-w64 GCC 15.2.0 (compiler).
