About

Hi, I'm Douglas and my pronouns are he / him / his. I've served as an elected community moderator on GameDev.StackExchange since 2017.

I've worked as a professional game designer since 2007, including 10 years at Ubisoft Toronto on games like Splinter Cell Blacklist, Starlink: Battle for Atlas, and Far Cry 6.

I currently teach in the Honours Bachelor of Game Design program at Sheridan College.

I do most of my personal work in Unity & C#, and love playing with shaders and algorithm design. I'm also an avid game jammer — you can play a few free solo games I made over a weekend here.

Hit me up on Bluesky or Twitter or in the GameDev chat room - I love helping fellow creators make cool stuff. 😃
