With a background in both game design and electrical engineering, I bring a unique blend of creativity, problem-solving, and technical expertise to every project. My experience in game design allows me to craft engaging, interactive experiences that focus on player engagement, narrative flow, and system balance. From prototyping to implementation, I thrive in collaborative environments, working with artists, designers, and engineers to turn innovative ideas into reality.

​

Simultaneously, my foundation in electrical engineering has given me a deep understanding of hardware and software integration, troubleshooting, and optimizing systems for performance. My analytical mindset and familiarity with complex systems have enhanced my ability to approach game mechanics from a technical perspective, ensuring functionality, scalability, and resilience in both client-side and server-side applications.

​

This unique combination of creative game design and technical engineering has equipped me with the skills to bridge the gap between artistic vision and technical execution, whether working on immersive gameplay systems or developing solutions for real-world applications. I'm passionate about creating impactful, enjoyable experiences, and I constantly seek opportunities to apply my diverse skill set to projects that challenge and inspire me.

About Me

I was born and raised in Minneapolis, MN, and moved to Springfield, MO, when I was 26. It was there that I met my wife. A few years later I decided it was time to go back to school to pursue a career in a field I love. I've been an avid gamer and programmer since I was a child cutting my teeth on text PC games and creating my first program when I was 8. I've loved games ever since playing games of every genre and on every platform.

Hobbies

My hobbies include music, tabletop gaming, digital gaming, programming, hiking, traveling, reading, and cooking.
