My role at Jellybean comprises elements of game mechanic design, copywriting, and general perfectionism. I make sure every aspect of the game is as fun, smooth, and professional as possible by the time we go to print.One of our most successful games, "Village Pillage" won the 2021 American Mensa Game Select Award, and is used as a model of effective game design in the University of Wisconsin-Stout's game design course.

Testlab was a temporary exhibition and program at Scienceworks, the first trial of a makerspace-style offering by Museums Victoria. As one of two programs officers, I was responsible for developing and delivering all workshops and programs for the duration of the trial.In total, we developed 11 original workshops, ranging from arduino programming to electronics to woodwork and papercraft, and facilitated around 10 externally-developed programs on subjects from bike-building to traditional weaving.Visitor surveys showed we achieved one of the highest satisfaction, retention, and word-of-mouth ratings of any exhibition ever held at Scienceworks. Two of our workshops were featured on ABCMe as "Science Time".We also had a whole lot of fun.
