Greetings, traveller!I'm a curious creative who views video games as a platform for expression and escapism. When I was young, they opened my eyes to an endless stream of imaginative possibilities. On cloudier days, games were my sanctuary from the hustle and bustle of ordinary life. So with gratitude, I can think of no greater honor than to pass the torch by contributing to experiences that might inspire and comfort future generations of dreamers.When it comes to game development, I value competitive teams that strive to delight their players with bold experiences born out of fearless authenticity, collaboration, and the courage to fail, learn, and try again. And while I do appreciate opportunities for autonomous ownership over a feature, I'll always appreciate learning alongside professionals who inspire me.Throughout my career, I have been incredibly fortunate to have been entrusted with wide range of design responsibilities. While "the dream" is to eventually acquire the experience and leadership skills necessary to become an accomplished Game Director, the following are specific disciplines that I feel are most aligned with my long-term interests, skills, and identity as a designer:• System Design (Combat, Core Mechanics, Game Modes, Multiplayer and Social Systems) • Content Design (Characters, Effects, Items, Quests, Levels, Live Tuning, Roadmap Planning)• Narrative Design (Campaign Scenarios, Story Planning, Dialogue, World Building)Familiar Tools:Unity, Google/Microsoft Apps, Perforce, Confluence, Jira, monday.com, Slack, Discord, Zoom, Photoshop, and...uh, another "comparable" image manipulation program mentioned below...Fun Facts:• No matter where I've been, I've always enjoyed proactively contributing to a healthy, welcoming, and mindful company culture. I'm not one to shy away from helping organize and execute social events and other engagement initiatives.• I...well, I may have been known to write, dedicate, and perform songs (poorly) for teams I've worked with in the past. Cast aside my dignity to entertain others? Sounds like a good deal to me.• I am infamously notorious for finding opportunities to incorporate MS Paint into my meetings. Yes, *that* MS Paint. It's truly one of the technologies of all time.
