Earlier credits
Designer by trade.
Writer at heart.
I started in game development as an artist in 1998, then moved into game design in 2004. Since then, I've worked across level and mission design, quests, cinematics, and narrative design and writing.
I also studied feature film writing at UCLA. I'm interested in projects where gameplay, storytelling, and memorable player moments meet.
