About

Video games can mean so much to so many different people. Some come to games for a good story, others for high-octane action and others still to out-play their opponents. Whatever the reason, games can be a lens for players to experience the world. As an Experiential Game Designer, I put players and their experiences first. I love strategy games, roguelike adventures, first person stories, adventures in amazing worlds and wacky, whimsical fun.
