ABOUT

IMG_6052_edited.jpg

I have always been fascinated by the potential of video games, due to the unique experience they offer that no other media can. Because this industry is so young, we haven't been able to push the boundaries that far as of yet, leaving so much left to discover. And as I learn more about the development process, I become more and more excited about the years to come. 

I've spent the past three and a half years at Champlain College developing skills as a designer and a writer. And while I have many solo projects under my belt now, nothing comes close to working on a project with a strong team. The collaboration aspect of game development is often the most rewarding, as a project will take on a new form that you never even thought about before. And its always better than what was in your head.
