I'm a systems software engineer working in the Android graphics performance team (formerly DirectX performance and core teams) for one of the major GPU companies in the SF bay area. I was formerly a professional game developer, but now am only a hobby game developer. All opinions expressed here are naturally my own and do not represent those of my employer.
