hi, i'm walter
programming and music-ing
programming
I have been programming one way or another since late middle school,
and have since earned a Bachelor's in Computer Science from Miami University of Ohio.
Throughout that time I've gained experience with several languages such as Java, C++, C#, Python,
HTML/CSS/JS and more, frameworks such as ReactJS (especially in MERN stack), and
the Godot and Unity game engines.
Lately I've continued experimenting more with game engines, lower level systems programming,
and web development as needed. I'm looking to expand professionally into any of these areas,
as well as networking or security.
music
Music has been my primary outlet most of my life via playing guitar and drumset,
but I have some experience on more instruments as well.
Over time I have also become interested in home recording and mixing, resulting in
experimentation and even some collaboration with others. I want to eventually make
some income from this hobby so there is more incentive to improve and join more of a
community around it.
"art"
I have no formal training in art, and didn't grow up in it exactly,
but I am learning to appreciate it and see it in everything, despite my
really empirical view of life up to now.
Every once in a while, after a lot of visual experiments in a short time frame,
I try to capture that period in one digital composition. In the future I hope to experiment with
different media and get some grasp on the fundamentals of drawing (or most visual media) like
construction, perspective, color, etc. I'm hoping this results in a lot more
freedom and output in the future.
