I am seeking work in Virtual Reality and have been building skills in VR, Unity, C#, and 3D modeling over the last few months.
I'm a recovering web developer who has decided to pivot entirely to VR by the end of 2016. I also just relocated back to LA from NYC. I was working on a VR game in Unity for Samsung Gear VR as a training exercise in order to teach myself all the skills necessary to ship VR product and slowly getting back to wrapping that up. My background is in frontend and UI/UX and I intend to apply those skills to VR.
My skills in VR currently include entry-level Unity, C# Oculus SDK, User Interface and User Experience design for VR, Samsung Gear VR (hopefully HTC Vive, Oculus, Microsoft Hololens, Google Daydream soon), 3D modeling in Maya.
My applicable skills from 15 years in design and development for the web include being a full-stack web developer (Python / Django, PHP, DevOps, DBs, Javascript HTML/CSS etc), UI/UX designer, product and project management, remote team management, online marketing, QA and development lifecycle, tech writing and system architecture, more. I also founded 2 social media startups and have worked in early stage with multiple VC backed startups, as well as interactive agencies and SMBs in the past.
I attempted to start a "journey" blog here: http://www.globalgum.com though I've slacked a bit in updating it since I started the coast-to-coast move. Looking to fire it up again soon.
If you are seeking a VR team, I have been building up a network of Unity developers and can work on assembling a team if needed. If you're doing the same, reach out and maybe we can team up.
Feel free to reach out at vr+hn@globalgum.com Thanks!
