Dylan Gooley

Hello, I am a software engineer and technical consultant located in Herndon, Virginia. I am a graduate of the University of Vermont with a Bachelor of Arts and Sciences in Computer Science, where I focused primarily on Cyber Security and also completed a minor in Statistics. I have business experience in many coding languages, primarily Python. Outside of academics and work, I enjoy endurance athletics and strategy gaming. I have run multiple marathons and have trained and completed a 40 minute plank! In addition, I run a Dungeons and Dragons epic twice a month, which has been ongoing for two years. I spend a lot of my free time on my game development project "gooley island" which you can learn more about in my work samples. At home, I have a cute poodle named Cedar. My favorite board game is Terraforming Mars, and my favorite snack is a bagel! :)

My Work Samples

  • Two-Player Console Game
  • Final Project for Computer Organization (Course on Raspberry Pi)
  • This project included assembling consoles out of two rasberry pi, programming a complete game in python, developing some graphical animations, and using web sockets for console communications. The game was built to resemble a pokemon-like fight game. Linked is a video demo of the final product.
  • INDIE GAME PROJECT
  • 6 year project in developing a novel digital TTRPG
  • For this ongoing project I've worked with many testing teams (beta users) on developing a game called Gooley Island. This website included tools for playing the game such as rulebooks and battle maps that could be used to enhance a players experience. Linked is the privately hosted website. This is a full stack project in which I have done all the creative work as well as all the technical work.

  • Game Design of 2048 from Scratch
  • Final Project for Advanced Programming
  • For this project I used C++ to create a 2048 game with graphics from scratch. This project incorporated graphical design, event listeners, avid function testing, and complex logic. Linked below is the code repository which includes a link to the video demo inside the readme. This project well represents my organizational skill.
  • Creating the Poker Foundry
  • Self Driven Data Science Project
  • For this project I used advanced game theory principals and python development to create a HUD tool for the most popular private game poker site: pokernow.com. In this project is a collection of modules that each analyze real time game analytics to assist the player in make the most mathematically sound decisions.
