Soulbound Studios is a new game company developing the innovative new Massively Multiplayer Online Game, "Chronicles of Elyria." The development of this game marks a shift in the industry from theme park or sandbox MMOs to dynamic, highly immersive, story-driven MMOs. Chronicles of Elyria gives players more control over their environment than ever before, simultaneously creating a world that feels both responsive and inviting and is recognizably different each time the player logs in. This evolutionary new MMO grants players the ability to decide whether to embrace their destiny, or fall victim to it, and asks the intriguing question, "Will you choose a path of virtue... or something darker?"

Since May 2010 I have served as the Technology Academy Instructor for the DigiPen WaNIC Video Game Programming Academy. During this time I have been responsible for both outreach to parents, students, and counselors, as well as classroom instruction. Coursework taught has included computer architecture, base 2 and 16 arithmetic, programming syntax & semantics (C++, Java, & C#), OOAD, trigonometry, linear algebra (vectors, matrices, 2D/3D transformations), computer graphics, AI, path-finding, and physics.Since November my duties have grown to include development of expanded math and computer science curriculum, keeping DigiPen up to date with the latest trends & technologies, as well as providing more rigorous and comprehensive math coverage. As a result, the course has been marked equivalent to both Advanced Algebra (Algebra 2) as well as Math Analysis (Pre-Calculus) in the local and surrounding school districts.
