Some interesting facts about me
I LOVE storytelling: film, TV, games. I love how great stories can resonate with us and generate empathy and connection with each other.
My favorite films are Short Term 12, Everything Everywhere All At Once, The Princess Bride, and Star Wars.
My favorite games right now are Brawl Stars, Firewatch, Little Nightmares, and Spiritfarer.
I love basketball, both watching and playing. My favorite NBA team is the Spurs.
I was close to becoming an esports player in Brawl Stars. I was ranked top 100 US in the competitive mode in the game.
I can whistle really well.
I love nature and have been to 7 National Parks so far ( I need to go to more!).
Other Game Design Experiences
Other Game Design Experiences
I designed two tabletop games on Tabletop Simulator. One is called Conquest, which was a turn based Risk style game with 4 players. The other is called Planet Escape, a board game where players need to collect enough resources to escape an alien planet.
I modded Chess by creating a point system and adding an extra row to the board. It was an interesting play experience for sure!
I was the solo developer of my first ever game Happy Holidays Elf Platformer. It was a holiday themed platformer where you play as one of Santa's elves collecting candy canes for kids!
