I turn 3D scans into stories
I turn 3D captures called Gaussian splats into interactive stories, tours, and web experiences. I’m a Senior Engineer at Advantage Partners, the creator of StorySplat, and a co-founder of Hidden Realities. My work also includes interactive stories for Yahoo and The New Yorker, and augmented reality for stadium crowds at ARound.

- My role
- Development & 3D Modeling
The New Yorker’s interactive documentary examines the killing of civilians by U.S. Marines in Haditha, Iraq, in 2005. I contributed development and 3D modeling to the project, which won a Peabody Award in 2025.
- My role
- Founder & Sole Developer
I built StorySplat so people can turn 3D captures into interactive stories without writing code. Creators choose views, add text, audio, and video, then publish a scene others can explore online.
- My role
- CTO & Co-founder
I co-founded Hidden Realities to create augmented reality people can explore together. As CTO, I lead development on projects such as Heart Full of Magic, which turns posters into games for children in hospitals.
- My role
- Creator & Developer
I created XRGallery so people can build 360° tours without writing code. Authors connect scenes on a map, add clickable points of interest, generate images with AI, and manage their tours in one dashboard.
