Welcome to my Website
A Brief Introduction
Hello! My name is Brandon Garvin, I’m a Senior Unreal Engine Engineer with over 12 years of Unreal experience, based in Alaska. This website serves as my professional portfolio and personal blog, showcasing my work from shipped commercial games to personal indie projects.
My expertise is in C++ and Unreal Engine, with a focus on engine-level programming, performance optimization, and console development for platforms like Xbox, PlayStation, and Switch. While I am primarily an engineer, I am passionate about all aspects of game creation, and can frequently be found practicing art, audio, design, and more.
To learn more about my experience please visit my About page, or navigate to the Projects page to see examples of my recent work. Below you’ll find some pictures of projects I’ve worked on and some recent blog posts.
