Top SchoolDavid Kerr is a founder and seasoned software developer with 12 years of professional experience building software and indie video games from Calgary, Alberta. As founder of Naturally Intelligent Inc. since 2007 he blends entrepreneurial drive with hands-on engineering, shipping product-focused code and systems. His background includes early software development work at Nortel and sustained open-source contributions—most notably extending physics engine capabilities in the Moai SDK by adding Box2D raycast support and Lua bindings. That work shows a comfort with low-level systems, C/C++ integration, and debugging across third-party libraries. David pairs practical game-development creativity with production-grade backend sensibilities, making him adept at turning gameplay ideas into robust implementations. He brings a quietly curious, systems-oriented approach that favors durable, extensible solutions.
