Hi there,
I'm Jackson Vanderheyden, a senior in Software Engineering at Iowa State University. This fall, I'll be starting my Master's in Computer Science at Georiga Tech, specializing in Computer Graphics. I am very passionate about advanced rendering techniques -- I've worked with 3D Gaussian Splatting, and this summer, I plan to write a Radiance Cascades rendering engine in Vulkan.
