Meet the Designer

Veteran generalist live-service Game Designer

Just a small town, Midwest kid who made the dream of building video games for a living come true.

I grew up spending weekends in all-night 16-player Halo LAN parties, creating friendships and memories that will last a lifetime. It’s my mission to build those kinds of experiences for others.

​I got my start in the trenches of seasonal QA work after finishing a degree in Game Design at Brown College before my big break designing during the Wild West era of Facebook and mobile games. I’ve spent my career figuring out what brings players joy and how to keep them coming back for more.

When I’m offline, you’ll usually find me tinkering with something - whether that be my 3D printer or putting together the latest Lord of the Rings Lego set; If it involves learning, creating, or building, I’m in!
