About Me

I can't remember at any point in my life, where I did not have a passion for video games. Whether it was playing Commander Keen on our first PC, Pokemon Blue on my Game Boy or Team Fortress 2 in college, video games have always been a big part of my life. I decided to use that passion and pursue a career in making games for others to enjoy.  After eight years in the industry, I have not looked back.
