About Me

I went to the MaST (Math, Science and Technology) program in high school. This is where I learned to program and first learned my love of making digital games. Then I graduated with a Bachelors of Game Design from Sheridan College with honors. I love the multidisciplinary and teamwork heavy aspects of designing games. The time I have spent sharpening my abilities with game design, coding, sound design, narrative, modelling, UI/UX, project management, and agile/scrum has made it easier for me to communicate with everyone on the team and therefore strengthened my design abilities.

When I’m not reading design textbooks I am reading sci-fi or fantasy. I love playing music (piano, bass, guitar and singing), game-based learning, hiking and dancing. I have also played 19 years of TTRPG’s and been a game master for 14 (this helped me learn human-centered design, and collaborative storytelling).
