About Me

I'm Preston Engler, a Software Engineer.

I'm generally interested in modern programming languages and computer graphics.

I went to school at Michigan Technological University and received a Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering. I managed to graduate Summa Cum Laude, which I'm proud of.

Currently I work in the Automotive industry doing embedded programming.

About the Hello World banner

The banner at the top of the page is one of my recent projects. I programmed it in Rust using wgpu, a graphics API based on WebGPU. It uses wgpu's WebGL backend and compiles to wasm to be run on browsers.

The banner uses no assets: The 3d models and textures are fully generated with code I wrote. It was fun to do everything in code instead of using outside tools, and it looks nice enough so I'd call it a success.

And if you haven't already tried, mouse over the banner and the letters will deform, this works on mobile too.
