About Me
Medicine meets software development
I am a Unity Developer with a professional background in general surgery and more than eight years of clinical experience.
After working in abdominal surgery, I decided to transition into Medical Technology to contribute to medical education, simulation and the development of interactive healthcare software.
I am currently studying Web Technologies while developing Unity applications for Windows and Android. My long-term interests include Medical XR, surgical planning, medical visualization, DICOM and image-guided navigation.
