Economist turned Game Designer & Producer currently working with TapFire Interactive on a quest to create engaging and fulfilling experiences. In this multi-faceted role, I design gameplay features and ensure timely product launches.Striking a balance between my expertise and passion for games, I dabble into the other aspects of Game Design and Production as well. Market Analysis, Ideation, Writing Narratives, Playtesting, Creating Production Processes, Cross-functional Team Collaboration, Timeline Management and of course, Documenting everything. Yes, everything.My professional journey however, began as the "math guy" in Game Design at FRAG, where I created mathematical models that govern the games you play. Learning at an accelerated pace from industry veterans, I went on to deliver multiple projects spanning various genres. A card based auto battler - Warring Tribes, a simulation game - DopeWarZ, and a strategy game - Mr. President.And when it comes to following my creative pursuits, I try and take time out for writing short stories, photography, and filmmaking. Well, potential filmmaking if we ask the plethora of screenplays rotting somewhere in my drives.
