I am a game designer, product developer and creative collaborator with 16 years experience making games.
Creating games and experiences that make people smile is my passion.
I just published my first solo project Trickshots on the Meta Quest Store. Previously I have helped bring sports worlds to life on both console and VR in the NCAA Football Series and NFL Pro Era Football Series. I have also helped create magical digital experiences like DropMix , Yo-kai Watch , and Beyblade at Hasbro.
